Sticky Grilled Chicken

This is the grilled chicken recipe my friends beg me to make every BBQ season. It’s sticky, sweet and savoury, marinated to tenderise and infuse with flavour. The shiny glaze is the cherry on top. The smell when the chicken hits the BBQ is outrageous. Outrageous!

Ingredients :

  • 1/2 cup ketchup
  • 1/3 cup brown sugar , packed
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce , all purpose or light
  • 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 4 tsp Worcestershire Sauce
  • 4 garlic cloves , minced

Directions :

  1. Mix Marinade in a large bowl.
  2. Scoop out 1/2 cup and reserve for basting ("Glaze").
  3. Add chicken, turn to coat. Marinade overnight (minimum 3 hours, up to 48 hours, or freeze).
  4. Brush BBQ with vegetable or canola oil, then preheat to medium.
  5. Pick up chicken, allowing excess Marinade to drip off.
  6. Place on BBQ, cook 4 minutes until nicely caramelised.
  7. Turn chicken, then brush generously with Glaze. Cook 4 minutes.
  8. Flip, brush with more Glaze, flip again and brush with Glaze.
  9. Remove chicken onto plate, cover loosely with foil.
  10. Rest 3 minutes before serving, sprinkled with parsley if using. Pictured in post with Macaroni Salad!
