Mix things up with Korean BBQ next time you fire up the grill. Bone-in, skin-on chicken pieces grilled and brushed with a delicious sesame-ginger sauce change up the whole BBQ game.

ingredients

5 tablespoons vegetable oil
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 piece (2 inch size) fresh ginger, peeled and minced
1 jalapeno, minced, with the seeds, if desired
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup vinegar
1/2 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup water
1 bunch scallions, slice the white and green parts separately
1/4 cup toasted sesame oil
8 pounds bone-in, skin on chicken pieces
salt and pepper

directions

Preheat the grill to medium-high heat (you can use a grill pan instead, if desired).

Heat the oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the garlic, ginger, and jalapeno. Cook, stirring frequently, for 2 minutes. Stir in the brown sugar, vinegar, soy sauce, and water. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer and let cook until the sauce has reduces to about 1 cup. Stir in the chopped white scallion portions and sesame oil. Set aside.

Season the chicken pieces with salt and pepper. Grease the grill. Place the chicken pieces skin side down on the grill. Grill for 5 minutes. Brush the chicken with the sauce, using about half of the sauce. Grill the chicken for another 4-5 minutes or until done.

Remove the chicken from the grill and place on a serving platter. Brush with the remaining sauce and garnish with the green parts of the scallions. Serve immediately.

  1. Guest Foodie REVIEW:

    My husband has made this recipe many times and it is awesome. A lot of sauce is not used, so this can be saved and used as a dip for egg rolls, for example, and maybe for a shrimp marinade.
