GRILLED GINGER-LIME CHICKEN KABOBS

Steps:

• Rinse, drain, and place all chicken pieces into a large zip-lock plastic bag.
• For the marinade, in a medium bowl, whisk together the next 9 ingredients. Pour over the chicken into the plastic bag. Seal the bag and turn a few times to coat the chicken. Place the bag in a shallow dish. Marinate in refrigerator for 1 to 4 hours. Turning occasionally.
• When ready to make the kabobs. Begin to thread kabobs with the chicken first onto a skewer, then add green pepper and then a grape tomato. Repeat 1 more time, and finish with chicken on top. You should have at least 3 pieces of chicken per skewer. Continue to thread all the skewers. Place each skewer onto a platter. If you have any grape tomatoes left, add them as the tops to some of the skewers.
• When all kabobs are ready, take the remaining marinade in the bag and pour it over the kabobs.
• Heat grill to medium heat. Spray gas or charcoal grill with cooking oil.
• Grill kabobs with the cover closed for about 3 to 4 minutes, brush once with some of the marinades. Then discard the rest of the marinade.
• Turn kabobs over and grill for another 3 to 4 minutes, or until chicken is fully cooked. Remove and let stand for a few minutes before serving, allowing metal skewers to cool down to handle. Serve warm.
• Yields: 12 chicken kabobs

GINGER SOY GRILLED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Start by combining the sesame oil, lime juice, honey, soy sauce, grated ginger, minced garlic, and salt and pepper in a shallow baking dish. Whisk these ingredients together with a fork and set everything aside while you prepare the chicken.
• Add the bone-in, skinless chicken pieces to the baking dish with the marinade, making sure the chicken pieces are well-coated in the marinade. Cover the dish with a lid or some plastic wrap. Refrigerate for 1-2 hours
• This is a dish that you can prepare earlier in the day and leave it to marinate for several hours until it's time to grill.
• When it's time to grill, remove the chicken from the fridge and let it rest at room temperature while you preheat the grill.
• When your grill is ready, turn the heat down to medium-low (if your grill is notoriously hot like mine is, then grill on low to be safe) and place the chicken pieces on the grill.
• Leave them for about 8 minutes, making sure you allow the bottom side to caramelize before turning. Flip them when they've achieved a nice brown colour on the bottom side and let them grill on the other side on medium-low (or low) for another 8 minutes, or until they reach an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit (use an instant read meat thermometer).
• Remove them from the grill and let them rest for 2-3 minutes. Garnish with some chopped green onions and serve!

GRILLED GINGER GARLIC CHICKEN BREASTS

Steps:

• Flatten the breasts to 1/2" thickness.
• Combine lemon juice, ginger, garlic, oil and cumin.
• Spread over the chicken.
• Marinate for 10 minutes.
• Grill or broil 2-3 minutes each side.
• Season with salt & pepper.

GRILLED CHICKEN BREAST WITH GINGER AND SOY

Steps:

• Combine the 1 cup soy sauce, 1/4 cup olive oil, 2 tablespoons sesame oil, half of the lime juice, ginger, and garlic, and 1/4 cup cilantro in the bottom of each of 2 large freezer bags. Put 2 chicken breasts in each bag and get them coated with the marinade. Then set the bags on a work surface, force the air out and seal them. Allow chicken to marinade for 1 hour. You can also freeze the chicken right in the marinade at this point. To do so fold each bag over the chicken 3 times, tape them well, and date them. Put it in the freezer for up to 2 months.
• Place a large grill pan on 2 burners over medium-high heat, or preheat an outdoor gas or charcoal grill. Fold a few paper towels into a thick square. Blot some oil on the paper towels and then carefully and quickly wipe the ridges of the gill pan or the hot grates of the grill to make a non-stick surface.
• Remove the chicken breasts from the marinade and season with salt and pepper. Lay the chicken on the hot grill and cook 3 to 5 minutes on each side until charred and firm. Serve with the sesame noodles and cucumber pickles.

GRILLED GINGER-BEER CHICKEN

Steps:

• Rinse the chicken and pat dry. Toss the ginger with 2 tablespoons salt and 1 teaspoon pepper. Sprinkle half of the mixture on the chicken; reserve the rest. Refrigerate the chicken, uncovered, at least 2 hours.
• Meanwhile, make the sauce: Pour the ginger beer into a wide skillet; cover and bring to a boil. Uncover and cook over high heat until reduced by half, about 30 minutes. Remove from the heat, add the tea bags and steep 10 minutes; discard the tea bags. Add the onion, tomatoes, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, brown sugar and thyme. Return to high heat and cook, stirring occasionally, until thick, about 50 minutes, using a potato masher to crush the tomatoes during the last 5 minutes. Remove the thyme. Set aside half of the sauce for serving.
• Bring the chicken to room temperature about 30 minutes before grilling. Preheat a grill to medium with indirect heat: On a charcoal grill, bank the coals to one side; on a gas grill, turn off half of the burners.
• Brush the chicken with some of the butter and sprinkle with some of the remaining ground ginger mixture. Place skin-side up on the cooler side of the grill; cover and cook until it starts browning, about 18 minutes, basting with more butter and sprinkling with more ground ginger mixture halfway through. Brush the chicken with a thick layer of sauce. Cover and cook until a thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 160 degrees F, about 20 minutes, basting with more sauce halfway through.
• Brush the chicken with more butter, then turn skin-side down and place on the hotter side of the grill (over direct heat). Cook, uncovered, until marked, about 2 minutes. Rotate the chicken to make crisscross grill marks and cook 2 more minutes. Transfer to a board and let rest about 10 minutes. Season with salt and serve with the reserved sauce.

GINGER-GRILLED CHICKEN AND RADISHES WITH MISO-SCALLION DRESSING

Steps:

• Season chicken on all sides with 2 1/2 tsp. salt and place in a large bowl. Add ginger beer, garlic, 3/4 cup vinegar, and 3 Tbsp. ginger to bowl and toss to combine. Cover and chill at least 2 hours and up to 24 hours.
• Meanwhile, whisk miso, 3/4 cup oil, 1 tsp. salt, and remaining 6 Tbsp. vinegar and 1 tsp. ginger in a small bowl. Mix in scallions. Let dressing sit at room temperature up to 1 hour, or chill up to 24 hours.
• Prepare a grill for high heat; brush grate lightly with oil. Grill chicken, turning occasionally, until lightly charred and an instant-read thermometer inserted into thickest part of thigh registers 165°F, 12-15 minutes. Transfer to a platter and tent with foil to keep warm.
• Toss radishes with remaining 1 Tbsp. oil in a medium bowl; season lightly with salt and pepper. Grill, turning occasionally, until charred in spots, 8-10 minutes. Transfer to platter with chicken.
• Toss lettuce with about one-third of dressing in a large bowl. Drizzle another third of the dressing over grilled radishes. Serve remaining dressing alongside.
