An ultra-simple grilled chicken that can be thrown together in just 25 minutes — without sacrificing on style and flavour.
Ingredients
1/2 cup coarsely chopped cilantro
3 tbsp chopped dry-roasted, salted peanuts
3 tbsp crispy fried shallots, optional
1 small hot red chili, minced
3 tbsp hoisin sauce
2 tbsp orange juice
6 skinless, boneless chicken breasts
1/2 tsp salt
Instructions
STIR cilantro with peanuts, shallots and chili in a small bowl. Stir hoisin with orange juice in another small bowl.
PREHEAT barbecue to medium. Sprinkle chicken with salt. Oil grill, then barbecue chicken, lid closed, until springy when pressed, 6 to 8 min per side. Transfer to a platter and immediately brush with half of hoisin mixture. Top with peanut mixture. Serve with remaining hoisin mixture.
