Grilled Tabasco Chicken Recipes

GRILLED CHICKEN TACOS

Steps:

• Prepare a grill for medium heat.
• Mix the oil, chili powder and 1 teaspoon salt together in a small bowl to make a paste. Pound the chicken breasts between 2 pieces of plastic wrap to about 1/2-inch thick. Rub the chicken all over with the chili paste.
• Lightly oil the grill grates. Grill the chicken until firm to the touch and cooked through, flipping once, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Set aside to rest for 5 minutes, then shred the meat into bite-size pieces or cut into strips. Warm the tortillas on the grill and wrap in a kitchen towel to stay warm.
• Serve the chicken tacos with shredded cheese, pickled jalapenos, shredded lettuce and/or salsa for topping.

GRILLED CHICKEN MARINADE

Steps:

• Whisk vinegar, soy sauce, olive oil, parsley, basil, oregano, garlic powder, and black pepper together in a bowl and pour into a resealable plastic bag. Add chicken, coat with the marinade, squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. Marinate in the refrigerator, at least 4 hours.
• Preheat grill for medium-low heat and lightly oil the grate. Drain and discard marinade.
• Grill chicken on the preheated grill until no longer pink in the center, 4 to 5 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

CHIPOTLE-LIME GRILLED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Prepare grill for cooking over direct heat with medium-hot charcoal (moderate heat for gas).
• While coals are lighting, stir together lime juice, oil, Tabasco, and salt in a liquid-measuring cup. Put chicken in a large sealable bag and add 1/3 cup marinade (reserve remainder in cup). Seal bag, forcing out excess air, and marinate chicken at room temperature, about 15 minutes. Stir honey into remaining marinade until dissolved to make sauce.
• Grill chicken (discarding marinade in bag) on lightly oiled grill rack, covered only if using a gas grill, turning chicken over occasionally and moving it to avoid flare-ups if necessary, until just cooked through, 8 to 10 minutes total.
• Brush both sides of chicken with some of reserved sauce, then continue to grill, turning over once, until lightly browned, about 1 minute more. Serve chicken drizzled with remaining sauce.

GRILLED TABASCO CHICKEN

Steps:

• Trim off the tips of the drumsticks and cut halfway through the joint that connects the thigh and the drumstick of each leg.
• Mix the soy sauce, ketchup, vinegar and Tabasco together in a tray and roll the chicken legs in the marinade.
• Place the legs skin-side down on the rack of a hot grill about 10 inches from the heat, and cook for about 10 minutes. Turn the legs over, and cook for about 10 minutes on the other side. Turn them again, and cook them skin-side down for 10 minutes more.
• Take the legs off the heat to rest for 5 minutes before serving.

GRILLED TUSCAN CHICKEN

Steps:

• Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
• Add the chopped rosemary, olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper to a large resealable plastic bag.
• Using kitchen shears, cut down both sides of the chicken's backbone and remove the backbone.
• Oil the grill grates, remove the chicken from the marinade and place the chickens skin-side down on the hot grill rack.
• Place 2 foil-covered bricks on top of the chicken to weigh it down. Grill 20 minutes, then remove the bricks and flip. Continue cooking for 15 to 20 minutes longer, or until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F. Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before carving.
• Serve the chicken on a bed of arugula with lemon slices.

GRILLED CILANTRO-LIME CHICKEN THIGHS

• Preheat an outdoor grill over medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Cook thighs for 6 minutes. Flip and cook until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 6 more minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Serve with lime wedges if desired.
