Lime And Coriander Marinated Chicken Recipes

CORIANDER AND LIME CHICKEN

Steps:

• Finely chop the garlic and corriander then mix in the peppercorns, sugar, lime juice, fish sauce, soy sauce and sunflower oil until well blended.
• Place the chicken breasts in the marinade and set aside for 1-2 hours, turning from time to time.
• Preheat a heavy based non-stick and cook the chicken for 7-8 minutes on each side until the chicken is cooked through and golden brown.
• Serve hot or cold with a pasta salad, garnished with corriander leaves.

LIME AND CORIANDER MARINATED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Slice the chicken into bite-sized pieces (I prefer strips like goujons rather than cubes).
• In a bowl, mix all the ingredients together and add the chicken.
• Leave to stand for at least one hour, stirring occasionally.
• Heat your grill and cook each piece for a couple of minutes, until cooked through.

CORIANDER LIME GRILLED CHICKEN LEGS

Steps:

• Put the lime juice, zest, coriander, cilantro, scallion and honey in the bowl of a food processor and pulse to combine. With the processor running, add the olive oil in a steady stream. Turn the motor off and add the salt and pepper. Pulse to combine. Pour the mixture into a nonreactive bowl and add the chicken legs to it. Toss to coat well and refrigerate for 1 hour.
• Place a 10-inch cast iron grill pan over high heat for 3 minutes. Put 4 of the chicken legs into the pan and grill 3 to 5 minutes per side, or until the juice runs clear if speared with a knife. Repeat the process with the rest of the chicken. Allow to cool to room temperature and refrigerate until ready to use.

BEER LIME GRILLED CHICKEN

Steps:

• In a bowl, mix the lime juice, beer, honey, garlic, cilantro, and salt and pepper until the honey dissolves. Pour the mixture over the chicken, cover and marinate for 30 minutes.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat and lightly oil grate.
• Remove chicken from marinade and shake off excess; discard remaining marinade. Grill chicken until tender and juices run clear, about 7 minutes per side.

SPRING CHICKEN WITH LIME AND CORIANDER

Steps:

• To make the broth, put the chicken in a stockpot. Add the remaining ingredients and bring to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer for 30 to 35 minutes.
• Meanwhile, make the coriander pesto: Put the coriander, mint, basil and olive oil in a blender and puree until smooth. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the noodles. Cook for 2 minutes. Drain and rinse under cold running water. Set aside.
• Carefully lift the chicken out of the broth. Set broth aside. Remove skin and shred the meat. Set aside. Strain the broth through a sieve lined with cheesecloth into a clean saucepan. Season to taste.
• Bring broth to a boil. Add the shredded chicken, leek, carrot and celery. Lower heat and simmer until the meat is warmed, about 5 minutes. Divide noodles into four bowls. Ladle the soup into the bowls. Add a dollop of pesto, garnish with coriander and mint leaves, and place a wedge of lime on each.

LIME & CORIANDER CHICKEN

Steps:

• First, spatchcock the chicken so that it will sit flat on the barbecue. All this means is using a pair of kitchen scissors or a sharp kitchen knife to cut down either side of the parson's nose to completely remove the backbone. Then, place the chicken, breast side up, on a chopping board and push down hard to flatten with your hands. Use a sharp knife to make lots of deep slashes in the chicken, about three in each breast and two in each leg.
• In a mortar and pestle, crush the garlic and peppercorns together to a grey, mushy paste. Stir the lime juice into the paste, then the chopped coriander. Put the chicken in a dish and massage the marinade into the chicken. Cover with cling film and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, but preferably overnight.
• To cook the chicken, fire up the barbecue. When the flames die down and the coals are hot and glowing, lay the chicken on the barbecue, skin side up, and sprinkle with salt. You will be tempted to keep prodding it and lifting it up, but leave it alone. After 25 mins, the chicken will look like it's cooked through, but flip it over and give the skin side 10 mins to brown. Lift the chicken onto a chopping board and leave to rest for a few minutes.
• You can now carve conventionally but I like to get a cleaver and chop it straight down into thick slices. Pile it up on a platter and serve scattered with fresh coriander and lime wedges.
