Brazilian Beer-Marinated Chicken
- 4 garlic cloves, smashed
- Four 1/4-inch slices of peeled fresh ginger, smashed
- 1 medium onion, thinly sliced
- 1 tablespoon sweet paprika
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon caraway seeds
- 1/2 green bell pepper, finely chopped
- 1/4 cup Dijon mustard
- 2 cups dark lager or stout, preferably Xingu Black Beer (see Note)
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- Four 6-ounce boneless, skinless chicken breast halves
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 1/4 cup chopped cilantro
- Lime wedges, for serving
- 1. In a shallow dish, mix the garlic, ginger, onion, paprika, salt, black pepper, caraway seeds, green pepper, mustard, beer and oil. Add the chicken, cover and refrigerate for 4 hours, turning a few times.
- 2. Light a grill. Remove the chicken from the marinade and grill over high heat until nicely browned and just cooked through, about 5 minutes per side. Transfer the chicken to a platter and brush with the melted butter. Scatter the cilantro over the top and serve with lime wedges.
- NOTE: Xingu Black Beer is an anise-scented, bittersweet black lager from Brazil.
