Grilled Curry Chicken Food

GRILLED CURRY CHICKEN

Steps:

• Loosen the skin on the breast and legs. Rub the flesh of the chicken, under the skin, with the lime zest. Mix the curry powder, parsley, salt and pepper together and rub all over the chicken. Place in a resealable plastic bag. Let the chicken sit overnight in the fridge.
• Preheat the grill to medium. Brush the grill with vegetable oil.
• Place the chicken on the grill skin-side down and grill until the skin becomes golden brown, about 15 minutes. Flip the chicken over, close the cover and continue grilling until just cooked through, about 25 minutes. Remove from the grill, loosely tent with foil and let rest before serving.

GRILLED CHICKEN CURRY WITH PEANUT DIPPING SAUCE

Steps:

• For the chicken: Heat a stove-top grill pan or griddle with cooking spray to medium-high heat. Season both sides of chicken with salt and black pepper and set aside. In a small bowl, combine lime juice, curry powder, turmeric, cumin and olive oil, as needed to loosen mixture. Mix well with a spoon and brush mixture all over both sides of chicken. Place chicken on hot pan and cook 3 to 5 minutes per side, or until cooked through. Remove from heat and place on plate.
• For the dipping sauce: While the chicken is cooking, in a small saucepan, combine coconut milk, peanut butter, lime juice, and sugar. Set pan over medium heat and bring to a simmer, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat.
• Serve 4 of the chicken breast halves with all of the peanut sauce. Reserve remaining chicken for Pastilla, if desired.

GRILLED CURRY CHICKEN LEGS

Steps:

• Wash the chicken legs and remove the skin. The easiest way to do this is to peel the skin down and over the end of the bone. Use a sharp knife to cut the skin, leaving a little piece clinging to the end, which will be nice and crispy when grilled, and will help satisfy the skin lovers. The meat should be pretty much skinless for this recipe, or the tenderizing marinade won't be able to do its job.
• Place the legs in a single layer in a baking dish.
• To prepare the marinade, place the yogurt, Cilantro (ripped up a bit), chopped onion, SWEET and HOT CURRY POWDER, GARAM MASALA and GARLIC in a blender or food processor, blend until smooth.
• Pour evenly over the legs, turning to coat. Cover and refrigerate at least one hour; two is better, overnight is wonderful.
• To grill the chicken, light a medium amount of coals. When ashy (15 minutes or so) divide the coals in half and line both sides of the grill along the edges with the coals, leaving the middle coal-free.
• Before putting the grill top over the coals, spray the grill top well with nonstick cooking spray, or rub with vegetable oil, as the chicken legs have been known to be a bit on the sticky side, which is why it is best to turn them carefully with a spatula.
• Remove the legs from the marinade pan, sprinkle both sides with salt, and carefully place in a row down the center of the grill. Alternating the legs, meat side, bone side, etc. (just like they were in the package), will allow you to get more on the grill.
• Cover the grill, cook 15 minutes. Carefully turn the legs by sliding a spatula under them, and cook 15 minutes more.
• Some of the legs may lose the coating on the first side no matter how careful you are, but if you turn them and replace them right on top of the bits that stuck to the grill, the second side will be fine, and that can be the "presentation" side.
• After 30 minutes total cooking time, remove the legs to a platter.
• Serve with Saffron Rice, or a summery pasta or potato salad.
