GRILLED CHICKEN ADOBO



Grilled Chicken Adobo image

This is a very tasty and easy-to-make Filipino chicken dish made with soy sauce, garlic, and vinegar. I can just as easily double or triple the chicken in this recipe to serve guests at a party. Serve over rice with just a little of the sauce (not too much).

Provided by Marcela Valladolid

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h10m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 small white onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, roughly chopped
10 guajillo chiles, stemmed, seeded, deveined and cut into 2-inch pieces
1 cup chicken broth
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
One 3 1/2- to 4-pound whole chicken, backbone removed, flattened slightly
12 corn tortillas
Lime wedges, avocado slices and fresh cilantro, for serving

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in medium heavy saucepan over medium heat. Add the onions and cook until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 3 minutes longer. Add the chiles and cook until darkened on both sides, about 1 minute. Add the broth, bring to a boil and boil until the chiles are soft, about 5 minutes. Transfer the mixture to a blender, add the vinegar and 1 tablespoon water, let cool slightly and puree. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Preheat a grill or large grill pan over medium-high heat.
  • Meanwhile, rub about half of the adobo mixture all over the chicken. Sear the chicken breast-side down until grill marks appear, about 6 minutes. Brush some adobo sauce on the other side of the chicken. Turn the grill down to medium and set one side of the grill to indirect heat (see Cook's Note for instructions for the grill pan). Turn the chicken breast-side up, place over the indirect heat side of the grill and cover. Cook the chicken, basting with the extra adobo sauce every 20 minutes, until a meat thermometer registers an inner temperature of 165 degrees F, 30 to 40 minutes.
  • Serve with corn tortillas, lime wedges, avocado and cilantro.

2 tablespoons olive oil, plus more for drizzling
1/2 medium yellow onion, chopped
4 garlic cloves, minced
Coarse salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 medium tomatoes, chopped
2 chipotle chiles in adobo, chopped (remove the seeds to make it less spicy), plus 2 tablespoons the adobo sauce
1/2 cup water
1 (15-ounce) can pinto beans, drained and rinsed
5 cups baby spinach leaves or mixed mesclun greens
4 ounces feta cheese, crumbled (1/2 cup)

1 tablespoon salt
6 boneless skinless chicken breasts
Nonstick cooking spray or oil

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Place a small dish of water next to your work surface. To make the tortilla bowls, place 4 empty (15-ounce) cans, open side down, on a baking pan. Using a pastry brush, soften the tortillas by brushing both sides with a little water, and then brush with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil. Drape the tortillas over the cans and bake until firm, about 5 to 7 minutes. Using tongs, turn the tortilla bowls right side up, discard the cans, and continue to bake until golden and crisp, another 4 minutes.
  • Heat the remaining tablespoon of oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and cook until soft and translucent, about 4 minutes. Stir in the garlic and cook until it's fragrant, about 1 minute. Season with salt and pepper. Add the tomatoes, chipotles with adobo sauce, and 1/2 cup water, cooking until slightly thick, about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Mix in the beans and cook until heated through, season with salt and pepper. Remove from the heat.
  • Place the tortilla bowls right side up on plates and fill each with a handful of greens. Divide the bean mixture between the tortilla bowls and top with a sprinkle of feta. Fan the sliced chicken on top and garnish with chopped cilantro. Drizzle with a little olive oil and serve with lime wedges.

GRILLED ADOBO CHICKEN



GRILLED ADOBO CHICKEN image

Categories     Chicken     Grill/Barbecue

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 (3-lb.) chicken
1 lemon, thinly sliced, plus juice and zest of 2 lemons
¼cup olive oil
2 tbsp. dried oregano
2 tbsp. Spanish smoked paprika
1½ tbsp. ground cumin
2 tsp. ground allspice
10 cloves garlic, peeled
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • 1. Use kitchen shears to cut out and discard chicken backbone. Using your hands, flatten chicken and tuck wing tips back to keep them from burning. Loosen skin over breast and thighs and slide sliced lemons under skin; transfer to a 9″ x 13″ baking dish. Purée lemon juice and zest, olive oil, oregano, paprika, cumin, allspice, garlic, salt, and pepper in a food processor into a paste; rub paste over chicken. Cover and refrigerate overnight. 2. Heat a charcoal grill or set a gas grill to high; bank coals or turn off burner on one side (see Grilling 101). Heat a plancha or flat cast-iron griddle over coals until very hot. Wrap a heavy brick with aluminum foil; place on grill until hot. Place chicken breast side down on the plancha and weigh down with brick. Grill chicken, flipping once, until slightly charred and cooked through, about 45 minutes or until an instant-read thermometer inserted into thickest part of thigh reads 165°. If the outside starts to burn before the chicken is fully cooked, move plancha to the cooler side of the grill until the chicken is done. Rest chicken 15-20 minutes before serving.

1/4 tsp ground red pepper (cayenne)
6 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

  • 3. Place chicken in bag; press out air and seal. Turn to coat chicken with marinade. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or up to 4 hours.
