Sweet And Spicy Lime Chicken Recipes

SPICY GARLIC LIME CHICKEN

Steps:

• In a small bowl, mix together salt, black pepper, cayenne, paprika, 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder, onion powder, thyme and parsley. Sprinkle spice mixture generously on both sides of chicken breasts.
• Heat butter and olive oil in a large heavy skillet over medium heat. Saute chicken until golden brown, about 6 minutes on each side. Sprinkle with 2 teaspoons garlic powder and lime juice. Cook 5 minutes more, stirring frequently to coat evenly with sauce.

SWEET, STICKY AND SPICY CHICKEN

Steps:

• Mix together brown sugar, honey, soy sauce, ginger, garlic and hot sauce in a small bowl.
• Lightly salt and pepper the chicken strips.
• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add chicken strips and brown on both sides, about 1 minute per side. Pour the sauce over the chicken. Simmer uncovered until the sauce thickens, 8 to 10 minutes.

SWEET AND SPICY LIME CHICKEN

Steps:

• Puree jalapeno pepper, garlic, shallot, and 1 tablespoon olive oil, salt, and black pepper in a food processor. Add parsley and thyme; process again to integrate.
• Rub the jalapeno pepper mixture evenly onto the chicken thighs, place onto a platter and cover with plastic wrap; marinate in refrigerator at least 1 hour, up to 24 hours.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium-low heat. Cook chicken thighs in hot oil until golden brown, about 5 minutes per side. Transfer chicken to a platter, retaining drippings in the skillet.
• Reduce heat under the skillet to low. Pour wine into the pan; bring to a boil while scraping the browned bits of food from the bottom of the pan with a flat-edged wooden spoon. Stir lime juice and honey into the wine; bring to a simmer and cook until the volume of the liquid reduces slightly, about 5 minutes. Return chicken to the skillet. Pour broth over the chicken.
• Transfer skillet to preheated oven and bake until the sauce has thickened and the chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 20 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

GRILLED CHILE LIME CHICKEN WINGS

Steps:

• Preheat Traeger Grill to 425F. Rinse chicken wings in cold water and pat very dry with a paper towel.
• 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.
