Sum Yung Guys BBQ Chicken
Matt SinclairIngredients:
- 2 butterflied chickens
- Oil
- Coriander to garnish
Marinade (2-3 chickens)
- 20g garlic
- 30g coriander root
- 50g green chilli
- 70g brown sugar
- 80g oyster sauce
- 100g fish sauce
Sesame Sauce (1 litre)
- 200g sesame seeds
- 80g grated ginger
- 50g peanuts
- 150ml soy sauce
- 100ml rice wine vinegar
- 180ml water
- 80gm sugar
Method:
Marinade
- In a high powered blender add all marinade ingredients and blend until smooth. Adjust seasoning to taste. This can be made a few days in advance.
- Lay the chicken out in a non-reactive container and pour over enough marinade to coat generously. Rub the marinade into the chicken and place in the refrigerator for a minimum of 1 hour, ideally overnight.
Sesame Sauce
- Place all sesame sauce ingredients into a small saucepan and gently warm through. Transfer into a clean blender and turn on to the highest speed to combine until smooth and creamy. Taste and adjust seasoning if required.
- Preheat the oven to 220C.
- Remove chicken from the refrigerator 30 minutes before cooking. Heat a large griddle pan or BBQ on medium-high and drizzle a little oil. Once hot, place the chicken skin-side down and cook for approximately 2-3 minutes until nicely charred. Turn them over and cook for a further 2 minutes. Place in the oven for approximately 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to rest for 20 minutes.
- To serve, spread the sesame sauce over the base of a platter. Cut each chicken into 8 pieces and place on top. Drizzle any juices from the resting tray over the chicken and garnish with coriander. Serve with rice or a punchy Asian salad.
