Grilled Vietnamese Chicken Wings Recipes

GRILLED VIETNAMESE CHICKEN

Steps:

• Heat grill.
• Place all the ingredients except the chicken in a shallow glass baking dish and stir them together.
• Make shallow slits across the chicken breast, going a little deeper in the thick end.
• Make shallow slits long ways, resulting in a slight diamond pattern in the meat.
• Put the chicken in the marinade and make sure some gets in the slits.
• This only needs to marinade for 10 or 15 minutes to pick up the flavor, I believe this is because of the slits.
• Place on grill and cook for 8 to 10 minutes, until no longer pink.
• Turn once during cooking.

VIETNAMESE LIME CHICKEN WINGS

Steps:

• Combine the bouillon, chili sauce, honey, oil, shallots, vinegar and lime leaves and whisk together to form a uniform paste. Reserve some paste for brushing, and place the rest in a resealable plastic bag. Toss the chicken wings in the paste in the bag and allow to marinate for 30 minutes to 1 hour.
• Build a hot charcoal fire on one side of the grill. Set the chicken wings on the grill opposite of the hot coal side. Cover the grill and cook until the wings are just about cooked through, 25 to 30 minutes. Rotate the wings halfway through for even cooking.
• To finish the wings, brush with the reserved paste and grill directly over hot coals until charred slightly.
• Transfer to a platter and top with cilantro leaves and peanuts.

• Preheat grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
