Grilled Spicy Paprika Chicken Food

GRILLED FLATTENED PAPRIKA CHICKEN

Steps:

• Stir olive oil with paprika, salt, pepper, garlic powder and cumin. Set aside.
• Rub spice mixture on all sides of chicken. Also push spices under the skin, being careful to leave skin attached to meat.
• Grease BBQ grates well. Preheat one side of grill to medium-high heat, leaving heat off on other side for indirect cooking.
• Grill chicken, breast side down for 8 to 10 minutes until skin is cooked well enough to release from grill and grill marks are browned. Flip and cook another 10 to 12 minutes. Move chicken to indirect heat side of BBQ. With lid down, cook for another 20 to 25 minutes, turning occasionally, until an instant read thermometer inserted into thickest part of the inner thigh registers 180°F (82°C)
• Remove chicken from grill. Let rest 10 minutes before carving.

GOOD FRICKIN' PAPRIKA CHICKEN

Steps:

• Whisk together yogurt, garlic, 3 tablespoons paprika, 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 tablespoon hot chile paste, and cayenne pepper in a large bowl.
• Mix in chicken pieces and toss to evenly coat. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for 3 hours.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat, and lightly oil the grate.
• Remove chicken from the bag and transfer to a plate or baking sheet lined with paper towels. Pat chicken pieces dry with more paper towels. Season with salt.

• Grill chicken, skin-side down, on the preheated grill for 4 minutes with grill lid closed.
• Turn chicken and grill with lid closed until well-browned and meat is no longer pink in the center, about 6 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh should read 180 degrees F (82 degrees C).
• Spoon sherry vinegar mixture over cooked chicken and serve.

SPICY GRILLED CHICKEN WITH LEMON AND PARSLEY

Steps:

• Prepare grill for medium-high, indirect heat (for a charcoal grill, bank coals on one side of grill; for a gas grill, leave one or two burners off). Combine paprika, salt, black pepper, and cayenne in a small bowl.
• Working one at a time, place chickens on a work surface, skin side up. Using your palms, press firmly on breastbone to flatten breast. Season chickens all over with paprika mixture, patting to adhere.
• Grill chickens, skin side up, over direct heat, rotating occasionally and moving to cooler side of grill as needed to control flare-ups, until browned, 5-8 minutes. Turn skin side down and grill, rotating occasionally, until browned, 8-10 minutes. Turn chickens skin side up and move to indirect heat. Grill, rotating occasionally, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of thighs registers 165°, 50-60 minutes. Transfer to cutting boards and let rest 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, drizzle bread on both sides with 1/4 cup oil total and grill over direct heat until toasted and lightly charred, about 4 minutes; transfer to a platter.
• Grill lemons, cut side down, over direct heat until lightly charred and juices start to caramelize, about 4 minutes.
• Place chickens on top of bread and scatter parsley over. Squeeze 2 or 3 lemon halves over; serve with remaining lemons.
• Do Ahead
• Chickens can be grilled 2 hours ahead; hold at room temperature. Grill over high to reheat, about 4 minutes, before finishing as directed above.

SPICY GRILLED SHRIMP

Steps:

• Preheat grill for medium heat.
• In a small bowl, crush the garlic with the salt. Mix in cayenne pepper and paprika, and then stir in olive oil and lemon juice to form a paste. In a large bowl, toss shrimp with garlic paste until evenly coated.
• Lightly oil grill grate. Cook shrimp for 2 to 3 minutes per side, or until opaque. Transfer to a serving dish, garnish with lemon wedges, and serve.

GRILLED HARISSA CHICKEN

Steps:

• In a small prep bowl, whisk olive oil, harissa, paprika, honey, thyme, lemon zest, and garlic until combined.
• Season chicken with salt and pepper. Thread chicken pieces onto skewers. In a shallow pan, lay them in a single. Pour the marinade over the chicken, toss well to coat. Leave the chicken in the fridge for 4 hours or overnight, turning halfway through.
• About 30 minutes prior to grilling, remove the chicken from the fridge and bring it to room temperature.
• Prepare a hot fire in a charcoal grill or preheat a gas grill to high (375°F to 400°F). Alternatively, heat a lightly oiled grill pan over high. Gently blot excess marinade from chicken to ensure a nice sear.
• Grill skewers, turning every 4 minutes, until chicken is lightly charred and cooked through. Let it rest for 5 minutes while you prepare the sauce.
• In a bowl, whisk yogurt, lemon zest, garlic, thymes, and salt until combined.
• Serve chicken skewers with yogurt sauce and extra lemon wedges

SPICY GRILLED CHICKEN THIGHS

Steps:

• In a large bowl (or ziploc bag), mix together all the marinade ingredients.
• Season the chicken thighs with salt and black pepper and transfer them into the bowl (bag). Use kitchen tongs to ensure they are all covered in marinade. Cover with plastic wrap and chill in the fridge for 30 minutes (or more) before grilling.
• Grill until they are cooked through (the cooking time will vary, depending on your grill and the size of your chicken thighs. I used charcoal grill and they took about 20 minutes to cook. If not sure, use a kitchen thermometer to check the internal temperature).
• Enjoy with bread, salad or any side you like!

SPICY ORANGE PAPRIKA GRILLED CHICKEN

• Place chicken in shallow dish.
• In a separate bowl whisk the rest of the ingredients and brush over the chicken.

SPICY GRILLED BUTTERFLIED CHICKEN WITH CRISPY BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to 375 degrees F. Clean and oil the grates.
• To butterfly the chicken, use strong kitchen shears or poultry shears and cut down either side of the backbone. Pull out the backbone, turn the chicken over and press down on the breast of the chicken to flatten it out to one thickness.
• Place the butterflied chicken onto a rimmed baking sheet and lightly drizzle with grapeseed oil.
• In a small bowl, mix together the lemon zest, chili powder, smoked paprika, cayenne, cumin, garlic powder, 2 teaspoons salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Sprinkle over the chicken, rubbing it in until every part is coated. Carefully lift the skin from the breasts and sprinkle some of the spice mixture directly on the meat as well.
• Place the chicken breast-side down on the grill, close the lid and grill for 15 minutes. Flip the chicken, close the lid and grill until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees F and the juices run clear, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove and let rest for 5 to 10 minutes before cutting into 6 pieces (cut the breasts in half).
• While the chicken rests, drizzle both sides of the bread halves with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Grill, flipping halfway, until crispy and charred, 5 to 6 minutes. Grill the lemons cut-side down until charred, 2 to 3 minutes. Slice the bread into 3-inch pieces.
• Pile up the grilled bread on a large platter followed by the chicken pieces and lemon halves. Sprinkle with the scallions and parsley. Serve.

• In a bowl, combine the wings, avocado oil, paprika, garlic, onion, salt and pepper. Toss to coat. Place the wings in the center of the grill in a single layer and cook until crispy and 185F internal, around 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a bowl, combine the sambal, honey, lime zest, lime juice, and garlic. Whisk to combine and set aside.
• Once the wings are cooked, add them to the bowl with the sauce and toss to coat. Transfer to a serving platter and garnish with the cashews and scallions. Serve immediately.

SPICY CHIPOTLE GRILLED CHICKEN

Add chopped onion, chopped cilantro, paprika, ground cumin, chili powder, and salt; process until onion is finely chopped. Transfer 1/4 cup chipotle mixture to small bowl; cover and refrigerate. Arrange chicken pieces in 11x7x2-inch glass baking dish. Spread remaining chipotle mixture all over chicken pieces. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
• Spray grill rack with nonstick spray. Prepare barbecue (medium heat). Grill chicken until cooked through, moving to cooler part of grill as needed to prevent burning and brushing with reserved marinade during last 5 minutes of grilling, about 30 minutes. Transfer chicken to platter and serve.
• *Canned chipotle chiles in adobo are available at some supermarkets, at Latin markets, and from mexgrocer.com.
