Honey Basting Sauce Recipes

HONEY GRILLED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Preheat a grill for medium heat.
• Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic, and cook until fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes. Whisk in honey and lemon juice. Reserve half for basting, and brush the other half onto the chicken breasts.
• Lightly oil the grill grate, and place chicken on the grill. Cook for 6 to 8 minutes per side, turning frequently. Baste often during the last 5 minutes. Chicken is done when the meat is firm, and juices run clear.

HONEY GLAZED PORK TENDERLOIN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
• In a bowl, mix the honey, soy sauce, brown sugar, sesame oil, and balsamic vinegar.
• Place the pork tenderloins in a roasting pan, and roast 15 minutes in the preheated oven.
• Remove pork from oven, and baste with the honey sauce. Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C), and continue roasting pork 45 minutes, basting occasionally with the honey sauce, to an internal temperature of 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).

HONEY MUSTARD GRILLED CHICKEN

Steps:

• In a shallow bowl, mix the mustard, honey, mayonnaise, and steak sauce. Set aside a small amount of the honey mustard sauce for basting, and dip the chicken into the remaining sauce to coat.
• Lightly oil the grill grate. Grill chicken over indirect heat for 18 to 20 minutes, turning occasionally, or until juices run clear. Baste occasionally with the reserved sauce during the last 10 minutes. Watch carefully to prevent burning!

ROAST DUCK WITH A HONEY SOY BASTING SAUCE

Steps:

• Note: I never measure the basting sauce exactly, I think this should be about right, but do adjust for taste if I am a little off.
• Wash duck under cold water and remove any missed feathers.
• Combine all the basting ingredients and boil over a high heat for about 2 minutes. Keep sauce warm while basting, stirring occasionally.
• Place duck in a roasting dish, brush with basting sauce. Bake in a slow oven (130°C) for about three hours, bast several times while cooking. (I like to do this slow to stop the skin from burning.).
• Turn the oven up to 170-180 and continue to roast for a further 30-45 minutes until skin is browned and crisp and duck is cooked through.
• As the duck is finishing off, mix a little water with cornflour, turn up the heat on stove, add cornflour to basting sauce and stir until mixture thickens. (I say 1-2 teaspoons of cornflour, the amount will depend on how much of the sauce has been used during cooking and how much it has reduced by.).
• Serve Duck with basting sauce.

HONEY-HOISIN BASTING SAUCE

Steps:

• Combine all the ingredients in a nonreactive bowl or blender.
