Fire Day Friday: Sambal Grilled Chicken


By OuR KrAzy kItChEn... (Visit website)



 

Next to Sriracha, Sambal Oelek is my favorite condiment.  Mix one or the other with Ranch dressing and you've got yourself one of the best sauces around.   Oh crap!  Did I just type that out loud?  Uhmmm.. never mind about the Ranch, I was only kidding.  Unless you think that sounds good, then I'm not kidding at all and you should go make it and dip whatever you can in it!!!


But I digress...you came here for a real recipe, didn't you?  Ok, ok... Sambal Grilled Chicken.
 
This is a REALLY simple and REALLY flavorful dish.  I found this recipe in one of my latest Food Network Magazines.  It was actually for Sambal shrimp, but I don't use a lot of shrimp when I cook, so I figured, why not try it on chicken?  It turned out to be one of my favorite chicken marinades.  I will say that the recipe calls for a lot more sesame oil then I think was needed.  I cut it in half and the sesame flavor was still a bit over powering.  I have adjusted to what I think will work best.  My suggestion - start with a small amount, you can always add more!
