GUAVA BBQ CHICKEN THIGHS

Steps:

• Trim fat off of chicken thighs. Place chicken in a large bowl, drizzle two tablespoons of olive oil over the chicken. Season with 2 teaspoons of kosher salt & 1 teaspoon of black pepper toss until combined and set aside.
• Heat oil over medium heat in a sturdy pot and saute the garlic and onion until tender. Add guava paste, lime juice, and water. Stir constantly over medium-high heat, until guava paste begins to dissolves.
• Add the remaining ingredients, cook until smooth and saucy about 5-8 mins, constantly stirring. Be careful to not let the sauce over boil. Pour sauce into a bowl and set aside.
• Prepare your grill for high, direct heat. If you are using charcoal or wood, make sure there is a cool side to the grill where there are fewer coals. If you are using a gas grill keep once side on low heat.
• Place the chicken on the grill skin-side down over direct heat. Sear the skin and grill for 5 - 10 minutes, being careful to not burn. Move the chicken to the cooler side of the grill, still skin side down. Close the grill and cook undisturbed for 20 - 30 minutes.
• Turn the chicken thighs, skin side up, and baste them with your guava bbq sauce. Close the grill and cook for another 15-20 minutes. Turning the chicken pieces over, basting them with sauce, covering, and cooking for another 10-30 minutes. (SEE NOTE)
• The chicken is done when the internal temperature reaches 165°F or the juices should run clear when pierced.
• Do a final sear, skin side down, on the hot side of grill for a minute or two. Baste with more barbecue sauce and let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving.
