Mon 19 Nov 2018
Adam Liaw's BBQ Chicken with Herb Butter recipe was created exclusively for Brown Brothers, to match the 1889 Dry Rose.
WHAT YOU'LL NEED
(serves 6)
- 50g unsalted butter
- ½ small brown onion, finely minced
- 2 cloves garlic, finely minced
- a handful of rosemary sprigs, leaves stripped
- a handful of thyme sprigs
- 1 red bird’s eye chilli, sliced
- ¼ tsp ground black pepper
- rind and juice of 1 lemon
- 1 cup loosely packed parsley leaves, finely shredded
- ½ cup loosely packed dill, finely shredded
- 6 chicken thigh fillets, with skin and on the bone
- ½ tsp sea salt, plus extra for seasoning
WHAT TO DO
- Heat a barbecue grill to over medium heat. Place a small saucepan on the grill and heat a little of the butter.
- Fry the onion and garlic until golden brown, then add the remaining butter, rosemary, thyme, chili, salt and pepper.
- When the butter turns lightly golden, remove from the heat and stir through the shredded herbs, lemon rind and lemon juice.
- Season the chicken well with salt and grill for around 6 minutes on each side until well browned and cooked through.
- Baste the chicken with the herb butter for the last few minutes of cooking.
- Rest the chicken for a few minutes, basting with more butter, and serve.
