Breeze Wood Grilled Chicken - Bahama Breeze image

Another recipe I found at Bahama Breeze's web site. I absolutely loved the fresh citrus flavors of this dish!! As one reviewer stated don't let long list of ingredients but you off, as this doesn't take long at all to make. I make the glaze ahead of time and make the citrus butter while the chicken is on the grill!!

Time 35m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 chicken breasts, boneless, skinless (8 oz each)
2 tablespoons olive oil
salt and pepper
1/2 cup wood chips, soaked in water for 15 minutes
1/3 cup orange marmalade
3 tablespoons orange juice, fresh squeezed
1 tablespoon lemon juice, fresh squeezed
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons olive oil
1 tablespoon shallot, minced
1/2 cup white wine
1/2 cup orange juice, Fresh squeezed
6 tablespoons butter, cold and cubed
1 tablespoon sugar (optional, as I forgot it 1st time and I like it better without the sugar)
salt
white pepper

Steps:

  • For the Chicken:.
  • Lightly coat the chicken breast with olive oil, salt and pepper on both sides. Grill over a medium heat, pre-heated char-grill with wood chips added just prior to adding the chicken or a charcoal grill with wood chips added. Grill for 6-7 minutes per side, while flipping it over twice during the grilling; the chicken is done when 165-170°F on a meat thermometer or the juices run clear when pierced with a fork. When the chicken is fully cooked baste generously with the orange glaze on both sides. Allow the chicken to cook for one additional minute to caramelize the glaze. Serve immediately with warm citrus butter sauce and your favorite sides. Enjoy!
  • For Orange Glaze:.
  • Place all the ingredients in a kitchen blender and pulse until smooth. Place in a clean container and refrigerate until needed for grilling.
  • For the Citrus Butter:.
  • Add the oil in a heated small sauce pan. Add the shallots and sauté for one minute. Add the Orange juice and white wine and reduce by ¾. Reduce the heat to low and add the butter cubes one at a time while whisking the sauce to evenly incorporate the butter; do not allow the sauce to boil as it will break. Add the sugar, salt and pepper. Stir to combine then strain the sauce through fine mesh strainer. Serve hot and Enjoy!

TOSTONES (POTATOES)



Tostones (Potatoes) image

In eighteenth-century Mexico and California, a toston was a silver doubloon worth fifty cents. These are round slices of potato in chile sauce named after these silver coins. Although the recipe calls for baking the potatoes, I precooked my potatoes in the microwave by piercing them with a fork and cooking on high for about 5 minutes which really cut back on the prep time. From Rancho Cooking: Mexican and Californian Cooking.

Time 1h10m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

4 russet potatoes, scrubbed
1 tablespoon olive oil or 1 tablespoon canola oil
2 tablespoons canola oil or 2 tablespoons pure olive oil
2 tablespoons flour
1 garlic clove, finely minced
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 cup excellent red chili powder
1 1/2 cups cold water
2 cups light chicken broth
1 teaspoon vinegar
1 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups monterey jack cheese
3 green onions, minced

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F.
  • Bake the potatoes for at least 45 minutes. Allow them to cool so you can easily peel and cut them into 1/4 inch slices. Heat the oil in a 10-inch cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Brown the slices of potatoes, turning frequently. Meanwhile, prepare the gravy.
  • Chile Gravy: Heat the additional 2 tablespoons oil in another skillet and blend in the flour. Cook until the flour is golden to make a roux, then stir in the garlic. Cook for just 1 minute. Add the cumin and oregano. Remove skillet from the heat.
  • Combine the chile powder and water in a medium bowl, whisking until well blended. Add the chicken broth. Whisk this chile mixture into the flour roux. Place the skillet back over medium heat, and whisk the sauce to keep it smooth. Add the vinegar and salt and simmer for at least 15 minutes until the gravy thickens.
  • To Serve the Tostones: arrange the potatoes in a shallow casserole or in 6 individual bowls and drizzle the gravy over the top. Garnish with the cheese and minced green onions, if desired.
