Man I appreciate the recipe. I modified it some to our tastes, but we're still eating off of it. The Misses Candy flat out loves it. Much appreciated. You're 1 for 1 so far..
I meant to add to the recipe (but you already did it) instead of using the green onions on top, I did the same and mixed them into the mixture.
All that cheese would make me constipated.
But then there's all the beans...
I'm almost afraid to find out which component wins in the battle of the bowels.
OK - So I'm working up a couple recipes for our Oinko de Mayo celebration here at the restaurant. I'll post some of them.
I can't really post any of my sauce recipes seeing as how they are secrets and we sell them. And sauces make up a big part of many of my recipes. But I can throw out a few.
Here's a pretty simple one:
Take fresh basil sprigs (about 4 oz) and strip the leaves. In a pot, put about a cup of Grand Marnier and a cup of Orange extract. Add 2 cups of water, a cup of sugar, 1 tsp Cayenne pepper, and a couple tsp salt. Bring that mixture to a low boil to drive off the alcohol. Shut it off and add the basil. Let this cool. It will become your marinade.
Once cool, take enough marinade to soak some chicken thighs in and ziplock or vacuum seal bag with some thighs. If ziplock, squeeze the air out of the bag and seal. Let sit in the refer for 24 hours.
Place thighs on shallow baking pan and bake at 350 for 45 minutes. Then turn oven up to 450 - 500 degrees and bake for 10 - 15 minutes to crisp the skin. Note - when you take the thighs out of the marinade, try to leave some basil leaves on the skin of the thighs.
Once cooked, place the thighs on a plate and drizzle a little honey on the skin followed by a very light sprinkling of salt. Torch the honey so that it crisps up with the skin. If you don't have a torch, just set the oven to broil and return the thighs to the oven after adding the honey.
There you go. Honey glazed, orange-basil infused chicken thighs. Very yummy.
no pics? WTFtried the orange infused chicken today and it was great. Although I did a whole spatch-cocked chicken low and slow on the grill, and then as @RamFan503 suggested, drizzled the honey on and stuck it under the broiler for a few minutes after grilling.
Modified the recipe a tad bit, and brined it in fresh squeezed OJ along with the Gran Marnier. Before putting it on the grill I sprinkled some orange zest on it and injected the marinade into the meat. Served it up with some roasted potatoes and grilled broccoli with EVOO and sea salt
wifey loved it and as we all know, happy wife, happy life
Glad to hear you liked it. And taking an idea and making it different and my own is something I have made my living off of. I can't say that everything I offer is an original thought but I always put my own twist on it. Spice of life y'know? It would be like me trying to claim fruit in a sauce or beer is my invention. Rather it's what you do with a concept that makes it special.
agreed...when I first started with the meat smoker,
Sorry but....
I'm such an infant.
going to be smoking a corned beef brisket this weekend for some home made pastrami. Wifey making the bread Friday
I liked that, but I don't know if it was because of the statement ... or the pastrami.Pastrami is the most sensual of all the salted cured meats.
