Filipino Chicken Barbecue Recipes

FILIPINO CHICKEN BARBECUE RECIPE

Steps:

• Combine all the ingredients except chicken to make a marinade.
• Marinate the chicken for 3-4 hours.
• Start a charcoal grill and let the coals get very hot. You want to smoke, flameless coals.
• Thread the chicken pieces onto wood skewers and place on a metal grate over the coals. Brush with oil and grill until the chicken is cooked through, about 5 minutes.
• Remove from heat and let rest for a few minutes.
• Repeat the grilling process with the cooked chicken, brushing with oil as necessary, until the outside of the chicken is a deep golden brown with a crispy exterior.
• Dip in a soy sauce and vinegar mixture with bird's eye chilis for a little spiciness.

FILIPINO GRILLED CHICKEN WINGS

Steps:

• Combine the vinegar, soy sauce, peppercorns, paprika, onion powder, bay leaves and garlic in a resealable plastic bag. Place the wings in the bag, then press out any air and seal. Move the bag around to completely coat the chicken, then refrigerate, flipping the bag at least once, at least 4 hours and up to overnight.
• Preheat a grill to 350 degrees F.
• Remove the wings from the marinade (discard the marinade). Grill the wings, covered, for about 10 minutes. Flip the wings, close the lid and continue to grill until cooked through or the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F, another 10 to 20 minutes.
• Allow the wings to rest for a few minutes. Season with salt and pepper and garnish with cilantro leaves.

CHICKEN BARBECUE (INIHAW NA MANOK)

Steps:

• In a large nonreactive bowl, storage container, or Ziploc bag, mix together the banana ketchup, 7UP, lemon juice, soy sauce, vinegar, brown sugar, and garlic until the sugar has dissolved.
• Add the chicken pieces and toss. Cover the bowl or container or seal the bag and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour and preferably overnight.
• When you are ready to cook the meat, heat a grill pan over high heat or heat a charcoal or gas grill to medium.
• Reserving the marinade, thread 3 or 4 pieces of chicken on each skewer, letting the pieces touch slightly, and set them on a plate or baking sheet.
• Pour the marinade into a saucepan and bring it to a simmer over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat to medium and cook for 10 minutes; set it aside.
• Spray the pan or grill grate lightly with cooking spray. Place the skewers on the grill pan or grill and cook, turning them and basting them often with the heated marinade, until they are cooked through or the center of a piece of chicken registers 165°F (75°C) on an instant-read thermometer. This should take between 8 and 15 minutes, depending on your cooking surface. (Discard any leftover marinade.)
• Transfer to a platter and serve immediately, with sawsawan.
