Mojo Grilled Chicken With Charred Red Onion Recipes

GRILLED CHICKEN WITH RED ONION

Steps:

• Rinse the chicken under cold water, and pat dry with paper towels. Transfer chicken to a large shallow baking dish. Add the garlic, the wine, and the olive oil. Toss to combine, and cover dish with plastic wrap. Marinate, refrigerated, 1 hour to overnight.
• Heat grill until medium hot. Remove chicken from marinade. Discard marinade. Sprinkle chicken with the salt and pepper, and arrange pieces on grill. Cook until chicken is dark golden-brown on bottom, 15 to 20 minutes. Turn pieces over, and cook until chicken is cooked through and juices run clear when pierced with a sharp knife, 15 to 20 minutes more.
• Place onion and lemon rounds on the cooler area of the grill; cook until soft and golden, about 5 minutes. Transfer chicken, lemon, and onions to a serving platter. Garnish with parsley, and serve.

GRILLED CHICKEN WITH CHARRED-SCALLION CHIMICHURRI

Steps:

• Heat grill to medium-high and lightly grease grates with vegetable oil.
• Meanwhile, toss romaine and scallions with 2 tablespoons of the olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Arrange in an even layer and grill, turning occasionally, until lightly charred and softened all over, about 5 minutes for the romaine and scallion greens, and about 10 minutes for the scallion bulbs. Transfer romaine to a large serving platter. Transfer scallions to a cutting board and let cool, then coarsely chop.
• Rub chicken with 2 tablespoons of the olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill until golden underneath, about 3 minutes. Flip and cook until chicken is golden and cooked through, about 2 minutes longer. Transfer to a platter.
• Meanwhile, in a small bowl, prepare the chimichurri: Combine parsley, vinegar, garlic, oregano, red-pepper flakes, chopped grilled scallions and the remaining 3/4 cup olive oil. Season with salt and pepper.
• Divide chicken and romaine among plates and drizzle with some of the chimichurri. Serve with lemon wedges and extra chimichurri on the side.
