Grilling the Ultimate BBQ Chicken

!±8± Grilling the Ultimate BBQ Chicken

You don't have to be a grilling pro to cook like one. So many recipes on the grill only call for a few things to make them phenomenal: fresh ingredients, the right seasoning, and proper cooking time. Just three little things to remember and your food will surprise everyone. One of the most versatile foods in the entire world is chicken. This fine feathered friend of ours has been prepared thousands of ways over hundreds of years. One of America's favorite ways to eat chicken is barbequed. It's so simple and delicious, yet people tend to get the formula wrong and their chicken comes out tasting like rubber smothered in ketchup.

The first thing people do wrong is overcook the chicken. They leave the poor little pieces of chicken on the grill for hours until there's nothing left but dehydrated meat and bone. You want to cook your chicken only to 170 degrees, never more. The idea is to let the chicken rest. Carryover heat will increase the temperature to 180 degrees, the safe point at which you can eat chicken. Chicken will remain juicy as long as it's not overcooked. Don't worry about drying it out. As long as it cook it the proper length of time, it will be just fine.

Ultimate BBQ Chicken:

This BBQ chicken recipe is really simple and super delicious. The first thing we'll want to do is to go shopping. I personally like chicken thighs for this recipe, but you can choose what you wish. Make sure to grab a bottle of your favorite BBQ sauce. The trick here is in the seasoning, we won't need to make a fancy sauce for these. The seasoning consists of salt and pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, rep pepper, and some old bay seasoning. Whatever you don't have already, pick some up.

We want to start the night before you grill and begin to season the chicken. We'll need to make a quick spice rub. To do this, take two tablespoons of salt and black pepper, 1 tablespoon of garlic powder, onion powder, paprika and old bay, and a ½ teaspoon of red pepper. Combine all these ingredients in a bag or a container, and that's it. Wash the chicken pieces and let dry thoroughly. After they're completely dry, rub the chicken liberally with the seasoning. Wrap your chicken in foil or plastic wrap, place in a leak-proof container, and let it sit overnight. Be careful to never cross contaminate when dealing with raw poultry.

On the day you're ready to grill, cut your burners on medium heat. After your grill heats up, oil the racks well and place your chicken pieces skin side down. Once they start to cook, close the lid. Check on them every 5 minutes or so to make sure they're not burning. All together, we want to give them 15 minutes on the skin side. After that, turn over and repeat the checking and waiting process. Let them go for another 15 minutes and them begin to sauce your chicken.

Saucing is the last step. Make sure you keep a close eye on your chicken, the BBQ sauce will burn quickly due to its high sugar content. After you finish saucing one side of the chicken and turning it over, the pieces should be ready to turn back over after saucing the opposite side. They should only take about 3 minutes on each side to cook the sauce on. Be careful taking the chicken pieces off of the grill. This recipe is really simple. It's all in the seasoning. These seasonings play very well with chicken, especially BBQ. The paprika has a nice, deep smoky taste. This recipe will be a hit with even the toughest crowds.

Beach Blanket Paella - A Traditional Recipe From Spain

!±8± Beach Blanket Paella - A Traditional Recipe From Spain

Paella, the rice-based Spanish dish, is one of the most internationally known recipes. It is also very versatile, allowing many variations as long as two main ingredients are consistently present: Rice and Saffron. Other than that, this dish can really take many ingredients. Even the rice can be of any kind. I buy the medium or long grain that can be found at any grocery store, and it makes a fine paella.

Saffron, however, is another matter. I still remember an invitation to a paella cookout in California many years ago. Our hosts had prepared an outside burner, the typical paella cooking pan and a large array of "yummy" ingredients to add. When they started cooking they pulled out a container of "yellow #5" food colorant and added it to the pan. My husband and I instantly looked at each other and said: " It is not paella." I will leave up to you to consider the importance of real saffron when preparing a good, real paella. Saffron adds the typical yellow color to the rice, but it also adds its characteristic flavor.

I share with you my traditional recipe for Spanish paella, passed down for many generations in my family in Spain. With a little prep work at home, this recipe is great for a beach cookout.

Katalenas Spanish Paella al Fresco

Ingredients/utensils you may need to research and find in advance

You're going to need a paella dish, a shallow metal or clay pan, usually round. The other two ingredients to look for in advance are Spanish paprika, called "pimenton" and saffron. You can find both at LaTienda.com. ("La Tienda" means "the store" in Spanish.) Most paella dishes contain some kind of meat. I use chicken because everybody likes it, but you can add beef or Spanish chorizo (sausage), or a combination of both.

The ingredients and the preparation will list the chicken recipe first, as it must be cooked in advance. If you want to skip the prep work on the meat, chorizo can be added directly to the paella on the beach; simply cut into pieces.

Ingredients:

For the chicken:

1-lb of small chicken wing drumsticks 1/2 onion 1/3 of a green pepper 2 garlic cloves 1/4 cup of white cooking wine 2 tsp of Spanish paprika (pimenton) 3 tbsp of olive oil
For the Paella:

2 cups of white rice 5 cups of water 1 medium onion 1/2 green pepper 2 garlic cloves 1 carrot 1 lb of large shrimp, uncooked 1/2 lb of scallops 18 little neck clams 3 squid fillets 2 envelopes of saffron (or two teaspoons of powder saffron) 2 Knorr chicken bouillon cubes 1/2 cup of olive oil Salt
Prep Work at Home

In a medium saucepan, add 4 tablespoons of olive oil and heat for a few minutes. Add the minced onions, garlic and green pepper and saute for about ten minutes. Add the chicken drumlets and cover. Pour in one-quarter cup of white cooking wine, cover and cook for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add 3 tablespoons of water and 2 teaspoons of Spanish paprika (pimenton) and cook for an additional 10 minutes. Allow the chicken to cool off, place in a container and refrigerate until ready to take to the beach. Clean and peel the shrimp (optional); rinse the scallops and cut the squid fillets in medium pieces. Add a few spoons of water and place in a separate container from the chicken. Refrigerate until ready to take to the beach. Clams may have sand inside, and I advise you to rinse them and place them in boiling water for just a few seconds until they open. As they start to open up, spoon them out of the water and place them in a container with a few spoonfuls of the cooking water and reserve in the refrigerator until ready to go to the beach. Do not discard the water used to cook the clams. It contains flavor from the clams and will be used later, when we cook the rice. You can strain it through cheesecloth or even a cloth napkin to remove impurities. Refrigerate. Later when I indicate to boil 5 cups of water to make the rice; you can use the clam's water as part of it. Cut up the onion, bell pepper, garlic and carrot in small pieces and reserve. Refrigerate.
Preparation (at the beach)

Bring 5 cups of water (including reserved water from cooking the clams) to a boil. Add the 2 chicken bouillon cubes and the saffron to the water. While the water is heating, place the paella dish on the fire and add a half cup of olive oil. When the oil is warm, pour in the cut vegetables, stirring occasionally and cooking until the onions are transparent. Add the cooked chicken, with all its sauce and vegetables. Stir in as it starts to warm up. Then add the raw fish (the mixture of shimp, scallops and squid) and stir frequently while it cooks. At this point the aroma of the fish, chicken, and vegetables will draw people toward the fire. After about 10 minutes, and while still maintaining a medium heat, pour in the rice. Stir it around until all the grains are wet with the juices from the other ingredients, just a couple of minutes. Then add the near-boiling water (with the saffron and chicken bouillon cubes melted in). Stir all the ingredients together for 5 minutes. Reduce heat to low. Salt to taste and insert the clams throughout the paella. Simmer over low heat until all the water is absorbed and the rice is soft, about 20 minutes.

Good luck and Good Appetite!

Cooking Chicken on the Grill - Facing The Grilling Time Dilemma 

Have you ever tried to cook chicken on a grill? Do you often get stuck with the chicken grilling time dilemma? Very few of us are successful in grilling chicken, especially those who practice it only over the weekend. Several days efforts are needed to learn how to get that perfect grilled chicken with mouthwatering aroma and taste. Any wrong estimation of gas grill cooking time for chicken will actually land you in a soup if you do not follow the right method. Timing is crucial for a nicely grilled chicken. So, read on if you want to avoid overcooked, uncooked or burnt chicken and enjoy a great barbecue party at home.  

Know When Your Chicken is Cooked 

It is important to know the exact time to cook chicken on a grill so that you get the desired results. The best way is to grill chicken on a low heat (230 degrees F. to 250 degrees F.) for about 45 minutes or maybe just a few minutes, depending upon how hot the grill is. A meat thermometer will help you to monitor the internal temperature of the meat without slicing it in the grill. Thus, you'll be able to avoid the releasing of moisture in the grill while cooking and will also reduce your chances of undercooking or overcooking. 

The Right Cooking Time for Chicken - With or Without Bones 

If you are cooking for the first time, you need to keep in mind whether the chicken is boneless or not. In case of boneless chicken, the internal temperature is about 170 degree F. when it is fully done. The ideal chicken cook time for bones is 180 degree F.  

Tips for the Perfect Taste 

Those who have an iron grate on the grill need to brush it with vegetable oil and olive oil before grilling the chicken. This will help to prevent the chicken from getting stuck to the grill while cooking. Those who are using gas bbq grill can prepare some of the best and tasty barbequed chicken by keeping in mind the various factors affecting the chicken cooking time.  

If you baste your grilled chicken with BBQ sauce you will surely have your guests wanting for more. It gives a mouthwatering taste to the chicken prepared in gas bbq grill, but if used before the grilling, the chicken can burn and taste bitter as the sugar in the sauce burn with the chicken. 

Pre-Serving Tips 

Once you have cooked your chicken in a gas bbq grill or any other grill, let it rest for some time before cutting it into slices. If you start cutting the hot chicken immediately after taking it off the grill, the fluids may run out of the meat, reducing its softness. If the chicken is allowed to rest for some time in a grill after being cooked this won't happen. 

So next time, you plan a party outdoors, make a sumptuous meal of grilled chicken and enjoy it with your family and friends.

Postnatal 'Confinement' Food - Part 2

!±8± Postnatal 'Confinement' Food - Part 2

Everybody will ask you to eat only ' healthy' food and avoid cold or cooling food as your body is cold after childbirth. This applies to the 3 main races in Malaysia but sometimes, what is considered 'healthy' may be 'cooling' for another which increases our dilemma. The best option is to try out the food as far as your culture and religion advices and learn to substitute the ingredients wherever possible to suit your taste. I am afraid that my culinary expertise is limited to Chinese and Western food so I can only talk about this type of food at this moment in time.

Traditional Chinese confinement food consists mainly of old ginger, rice wine, sesame oil, black vinegar, some warming alcohol, lots of meat especially kampong chicken and lean pork, white fish such as white pomfret and some vegetables.

Apparently, you are supposed to eat 30 chickens, 12 bottles of rice wine and 15 kilos of old ginger root during this period. Whether you can achieve this target is up to you but I find that most women nowadays cannot manage it. On average, if you do practice what is recommended, the cost could easily be about RM 1000.00 ++ just for the food only.

Food to avoid during the first week only

Ginger - Delays healing of wounds and increase risk of jaundice in baby. Substitute with peppercorn or garlic.

Fish - Causes foul smelling lochia or discharge.

Alcohols which are recommended for consumption during the confinement month are: Brandy, Yomeishu, rice wine and Guinness Malta because they are 'yang'. If you are a non-drinker, this sudden consumption may cause alcohol rash, redness in the face and heart palpitations, so do take it easy. Alcohol does go to the baby through breast milk, so if you want a good night's sleep, drink the alcohol after your dinner. The content of alcohol is reduced during cooking therefore you might consider adding it to your food during cooking instead of drinking it neat. Guinness Malta is non alcoholic and has high iron content therefore is suitable if you are anemic. Pulut rice is rich in iron therefore is used to make rice wine for postnatal nursing mothers. The rice is low in fat and free of cholesterol with high dietary fiber to reduce risk of heart attack and diabetes. It is better known as Shaoxing wine.

Drinks

It is believed that iced or cold drinks may cause severe shock to the system and further weaken the 'cold' body therefore it is strongly recommended that boiled warm teas are consumed throughout the day as they are supposed to help heat up the womb. For those who do not believe in these teas you may try drinking Chamomile tea which is beneficial for the baby as well, because it helps to reduce wind

Soups

Soup is a nutritious replacement for water. You can use any meat for stock. The meat supplies fat that is essential for extraction of fat soluble nutrients. Drinking soup about 1 hour before breastfeeding may help to increase milk flow. Chinese soups are usually clear and easier to drink compared to creamy western soups and it is less fattening.

Below are some food ingredients that you might want to add to your diet during the postnatal 'confinement' month.

Boxthorn fruit or Chinese wolf berry is best known to correct poor eyesight and eye strain. Used in conjunction with other herbs it is effective for improving energy and strength

Chinese angelica root or dong kwai is supposed to nourish the female organs, alleviate menstrual pain and prevent hemorrhage.

Chinese yam (wai san) used in conjunction with meat and other herbs aids digestion, regulate sugar level and control inflammation of the uterus. The dried variety must be soaked for at least 15 minutes before use to remove the powder

Solomon's seal (yok chuk) is used to alleviate many ailments especially those affecting the throat and lungs

Sesame oil, besides being rich in Vitamin E, Iron & Calcium, helps heal the womb and rid it of "dirty residual blood".

Chestnuts invigorate vital energy. Resolves fatigue depression and irritability. High in phosphorous, selenium and calcium

Black vinegar is made from glutinous rice and lowers ph of food. It leaches calcium from bones cooked with it, therefore it is used to prepare high calcium food especially for breast feeding mothers and it also relieves a windy abdomen.

Dill has antibacterial and antispasmodic properties. It is a warming herb which aids digestion, gets rid of gas, encourages lactation, freshens the breath and soothes colic. It is the main ingredient in Gripe water.

Almonds and walnuts contain leucine and isoleucine which are amino acids that regulates growth, blood sugar and wound healing.

Malay confinement food is the same as normal but with a lot of jamu which is basically natural herbal remedies used internally and externally for health and beauty. Make sure the products are registered with the Ministry of Health and that they are locally produced

Kani seeds contain antioxidants to promote youthfulness, tighten vaginal muscles, prevents excessive discharge, odour and itchiness. It firms the breasts and promotes healing of the reproductive system after childbirth.

Gallanggal is a member of the ginger family and it functions as an antibiotic. It warms the body, cleanses the blood, improves appetite, reduces wind and energizes the muscles.

Pegaga leaves increases energy, helps ease sleeping problems, improves blood circulation.

Turmeric functions as an antibiotic and promotes a healthy circulatory system.

Drumstick leaves are rich in proteins, vitamin C and A, beta-carotene, iron, calcium, potassium and other minerals. Because of their nutrients and ability to encourage milk flow, they are a valuable food for survival in impoverished countries.

The most important thing to remember is that you must be comfortable with what you eat. Do not force yourself to eat something that you do not like or will cause problems later. Although you are 'in confinement' you are not a prisoner per se.

Easy Crockpot Recipes With Meat

!±8± Easy Crockpot Recipes With Meat

Meat is the basis for many delicious crockpot meals and there are many different types of meat you can cook to perfection in a slow cooker. You can cook anything from chicken and pork to the toughest cuts of beef.

These economical cuts of beef are broken down gradually by the slow cooking process and they come out incredibly tender and juicy.

You can make easy crockpot recipes using beef, pork or something else, simply by combining the meat of your choice with stock, wine, juice or even a can of broth. Some of the easiest recipes for the crockpot only require three or four ingredients and because slow cooking boosts the flavor of the dish you will not need a lot of herbs, spices and additional flavorings for a well balanced and flavorful meal.

You can roast a joint of beef or pork in a slow cooker and you can do this without adding water or another liquid. You will find that it is best to add some liquid though because this creates a flavorful gravy for the dish. If you are using something fatty and marbled, you will not need to add much liquid because the fat will melt out of the meat. You do need liquid in the crockpot if you are cooking vegetables in there though, to soften them and cook them properly.

Tips for Cooking Meat in a Crockpot

If you want to slow cook something with a lot of fat, it is best to remove as much of it as possible because fat does not cook well in this way. Another option would be to brown the beef or pork beforehand in a skillet and then drain the fat off before adding it to the crockpot. If you are cooking dense vegetables like potatoes and carrots, place the meat on top of them in the slow cooker because the vegetables will take longer to cook and therefore benefit from more heat.

It is not compulsory to brown the meat before adding it to the crockpot and there are many easy crockpot recipes which will just tell you to add the ingredients to the crockpot, stir and leave it to cook.

However, if you do sear the pork or beef before adding it, you will find that the flavor is deeper and better, so it might be worth doing this.

Cooking Meat from Frozen

It is possible to cook meat from frozen when making easy crockpot recipes. If you want to do this you will need to ensure sufficient cooking time for everything to thaw, cook properly and tenderize.

The temperature of the frozen pork or beef will bring down the temperature inside the crockpot but allowing enough time for the meal to cook means this does not have to be a problem.

If you are making easy crockpot recipes using meat which is frozen, it is a good idea to use a cooking thermometer to ensure the meat is not only cooked but safe to eat. It needs to be above 165 degrees F in order to be tender and cooked perfectly.

If you are new to cooking meat in a crockpot, it is a good idea to have a look at some of the best crockpot recipes for more information and to give you some ideas of what to make.

    How To Make Slow-Cooked Chicken Drumsticks

    !±8± How To Make Slow-Cooked Chicken Drumsticks

    You might not have considered making chicken drumsticks in the crockpot before but why not? They come out succulent and tender and you can leave them alone while they cook; that means no more sweating over a hot stove!

    Some recipes will tell you to cook the drumsticks in seasoned flour and then add some liquid and others will tell you to add everything to the slow cooker, perhaps browning the poultry first, and then leave it all to cook. The skin does not go crispy in a crockpot so remove it before you begin.

    Barbecue flavor drumsticks are really good and you can make these by combining half a cup of soy sauce with a couple of minced garlic cloves, eight ounces of tomato sauce and quarter of a cup of brown sugar.

    Mix this sauce with twelve skinless drumsticks and cook on low for eight hours. This is a really simple recipe and the results are great. You can serve this at a buffet or even as a hot appetizer.

    Recipe For Teriyaki Chicken Drumsticks

    This recipe gives your poultry an authentic Asian flavor and you can use this sauce for pork instead of chicken if you prefer. These are nice served hot from the slow cooker or chilled. When they finish cooking the meat is falling off the bone so giving them half an hour in the refrigerator might be a good idea if you are serving them as finger food, as the meat will hold on to the bone better when they are cold.

    What You Need:

    25 skinless chicken drumsticks 1 bottle thick teriyaki sauce 2 teaspoons salt 3 tablespoons Chinese five spice powder 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder 1 teaspoon smoked paprika 1 tablespoon brown sugar

    How To Make It:

    Stir the spices together, then roll the chicken in the mixture and add them to the slow cooker. Cook for six hours on low. Add six tablespoons of the teriyaki sauce over the top, then cook for an hour more. Transfer the cooked chicken on to a serving platter and drizzle some more sauce over the top.

    Recipe For Slow Cooker Cacciatore Drumsticks

    This Italian style recipe serves four people and you will love the combination of tomatoes, mushrooms, garlic, herbs, and other wonderful ingredients. Serve this meal with rice or any kind of potatoes.

    What You Need:

    8 chicken drumsticks 1/2 teaspoon dried basil 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano 3 tablespoons flour 2 tablespoons olive oil 1 chopped onion 4 oz sliced mushrooms 15 oz Italian style tomato sauce 2 tablespoons cornstarch 1/4 cup cold water 2 minced garlic cloves 1 chopped green bell pepper

    How To Make It:

    Sprinkle the flour over the poultry, and then brown it in the olive oil in a skillet for a few minutes. Transfer it to the crockpot. Stir in everything else except the cornstarch and water.

    Cover the slow cooker and cook for about seven hours on low. Stir the cornstarch and water together, and then stir this into the crockpot mixture. Cook on high for twenty minutes or until thick.

    Betty's Buttery Croutons Recipe

    In this video, Betty makes her scrumptious Buttery Croutons. These are just toasted, buttered bread cubes, but you can add any flavor that you like. You will enjoy them with any green salad, or you can use them in dressing, meatloaf, and many other recipes. Ingredients (for the amount I demonstrated): 4 slices white bread, including crust (You may use whole grain bread, and you may use as many slices as you need for the amount of croutons you want.) 4 tablespoons butter, softened to room temperature (or as needed) If convenient, freeze your loaf of sliced bread at least overnight. When you are ready to make your croutons, separate out as many slices of bread as you need. Now, spread both sides of frozen bread slices with a thin layer of butter. (You may leave the butter off, if you are watching fat and calories.) As the bread is buttered, you may add garlic powder, dried herbs, etc. to fit your taste, although these are very good plain. Next, (while the bread is still frozen, use a knife to slice vertically and horizontally, forming cubes of buttered, frozen bread. Place the cubes in a single layer in a shallow baking pan. Use more than one pan, if needed. Bake for about 15 minutes, stirring every 5 minutes. Watch closely, so that the croutons do not get overly brown. When the croutons are golden and crisp, remove them from the oven. Let cool. Place in a tightly covered container to store. Use as desired, with salads or in other recipes! These taste outrageously delicious ...
