GRILLED CURRY CHICKEN

Steps:

• Fire up BBQ to medium heat.
• In a large bowl, stir oil with mustard, honey, curry, salt, garlic powder, pepper and cinnamon or allspice.
• Baste chicken with a basting brush or add chicken turning evenly to coat.
• Place chicken on grill.
• BBQ turning and brushing often with remaining marinade.
• Baste only for the first 5 minutes, allowing all baste to cook.
• Remember, the marinade has been in contact with raw chicken, so it must be fully cooked.
• Grill 5 more minutes to ensure doneness.
• Sprinkle with coriander.
• Great with Fast Tropical Mango Salsa.
• As an alternative, you can double the sauce, place in foil covered baking dish and bake the chicken breasts in the oven at 375 for about 20 minutes. Goes great with Pad Thai!

COCONUT CURRY CHICKEN SKEWERS

Steps:

• Cut chicken into flat 2-x-2-inch pieces. (You should have about 24 pieces.) Mix 1 tablespoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon turmeric and 1/8 teaspoon cayenne. Use mixture to season chicken lightly on both sides.
• To skewer, lay meat flat on cutting board. Thread meat onto two skewers spaced equidistant from center; do this first with one skewer, then the other. Put three pieces of chicken onto each set of skewers, for eight brochettes total.
• In a blender, put 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon turmeric, 1/4 teaspoon cayenne, garam masala, lime zest and juice, coconut milk, ginger and grated coconut. Blend to obtain a smooth sauce. Transfer to a bowl.
• Put oil in a small pan over medium heat. Add mustard seeds and let them pop (this only takes a few seconds). Pour oil and seeds into the coconut curry mixture and stir.
• Lay brochettes on a tray in one layer. Spoon 8 tablespoons curry mixture over chicken and spread to cover evenly on both sides. (Save remaining sauce.) Leave at room temperature for 1 hour, or refrigerate several hours, then bring to room temperature.
• Grill over medium-hot fire for about 3 minutes per side (longer if using thighs), until meat feels firm when poked with a finger. Serve with reserved sauce.

GRILLED THAI CURRY CHICKEN SKEWERS WITH COCONUT-PEANUT SAUCE

Steps:

• Pound the chicken breasts to an even ½-inch thickness between two pieces of wax or parchment paper. Cut the breasts into 1½" pieces and set aside.
• Make the marinade by combining the soy sauce, dark brown sugar, lime zest, vegetable oil, garlic, curry powder, ginger, cardamom and salt in a large bowl. Add the chicken pieces to the bowl and mix until chicken is evenly coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or overnight.
• Make the sauce by whisking together the coconut milk, peanut butter, brown sugar, soy sauce and red curry paste in a medium saucepan. Bring to a simmer, then cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, for about 3 minutes. Add the fresh lime juice. Set aside.
• Preheat the grill to high heat. Meanwhile, thread the chicken pieces onto skewers. Grease the grill. Place the skewers on the grill and cook for about 10 minutes, turning once, or until the chicken is cooked through. Serve the chicken skewers with the Coconut-Peanut Sauce and lime wedges, if desired.

Steps:

• Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium heat.
• To make the peanut sauce, put the peanut butter in a blender with the soy sauce, honey, ginger, red pepper flakes, chili oil and lime juice. Add 1/4 cup very hot water as you blend the mixture. Check the consistency and add a little more hot water if needed to make it very smooth. Transfer the sauce to a small dish, cover it with plastic wrap and set aside.
• Brush the grill with oil. Thread the chicken onto the skewers and grill on both sides until the chicken is done in the middle, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Remove to a serving platter and sprinkle on the cilantro.
• Serve the skewers with dishes of the peanut sauce and a good-quality barbecue sauce for dipping.

GRILLED CURRY CHICKEN KEBABS RECIPE

Steps:

• In a mixing bowl, combine coconut milk, minced garlic, curry powder, fish sauce, chili flakes, minced shallot, and kosher salt. Stir until everything is combined and add the chicken. Mix well and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes and up to 12 hours.
• When you're ready to cook, thread the chicken onto the bamboo skewers.
• Light one chimney full of charcoal. When all the charcoal is lit and covered with gray ash, pour out and arrange the coals on one side of the charcoal grate. Set cooking grate in place, cover grill, and allow to preheat for 5 minutes. Alternatively, set half the burners on a gas grill to the highest heat setting, cover, and preheat for 10 minutes. Clean and oil the grilling grate.
• Place skewers on the middle of the grill (between the hot and cool sections), cover, and cook until skewers are well browned on the first side, about 5 minutes. If skewers are browning too fast, shift them to the cooler side; if not browning fast enough, move them closer to the hotter side. Flip the skewers and cook until the second side is browned and the thickest piece of chicken registers 160°F on an instant-read thermometer, about 5 minutes longer. Transfer to a serving platter, let rest for 2 minutes, and serve.

Steps:

• Combine the curry powder, onion powder, crushed red pepper flakes, sea salt and parsley in a small bowl to create the spice blend. Use the spice blend as a rub, using as much as needed to cover each chicken breast. You may have a bit of the spice rub left over - just store any remaining in an airtight container for later use. Just be sure not to contaminate it with any raw chicken juice.
• Preheat an indoor or outdoor grill on medium heat. Lightly oil the grill grate, place chicken on the grill and cook for 5 to 6 minutes on each side, until juice runs clear. Cook time will vary based on the size of your chicken breast.
