Smoky Hot Chicken
- Chicken
- 9 boneless, skinless chicken thighs
- 3 lemons, halved and juiced
- 1/4 cup rice wine vinegar
- 1/2 cup canola oil
- 6 garlic cloves, smashed
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
- 1 tablespoon Smoked Paprika
- 1 tablespoon Hot Paprika
- 1 teaspoon turmeric
- 1 pint cherry or grape tomatoes
- Bamboo Skewers, soaked for 30 minutes
- Sauce
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 1/3 cup mixed fruit marmalade, chopped if the pieces are large
- 1/3 cup lime juice
- Chopped parsley & Smoked Paprika for garnish
- Cut the chicken into large chunks.
- Toss marinade ingredients in a large bowl and whisk together.
- Add chicken and marinate for at least an hour, and up to 8 hours.
- Skewer chicken and put a tomato between each piece. I like to use two skewers so the chicken can be turned on the grill, without spinning on the skewer.
- Grill on a hot grill (or use a grill pan) for 4-5 min. per side. Let it rest for three to five minutes, then serve.
- While the chicken rests, in a small saucepan, heat a little canola oil and saute the garlic until you can just start to smell it. Toss in the marmalade and lime juice and heat through.
- Puddle a small amount of the sauce on the plate and plate the chicken and tomatoes, add some rice and a simple green salad for a quick dinner. Scatter smoked paprika and chopped parsley around the edges of the plate for decoration, because even a simple dinner deserves to be dressed up a little.
