Sweet Chili Garlic Chicken Recipes

CHICKEN WITH SWEET CHILI SAUCE

Steps:

• In a small bowl mix together sweet chili sauce, soy sauce and garlic. Pour 1/2 cup (half the mixture) into a small plastic food storage zip bag. Add chicken and turn to coat; refrigerate and marinade 30 minutes.
• To a skillet, add a tablespoon or two of oil and heat over medium-high heat. Remove chicken from marinade and brown on one side for about 2-3 minutes (it may smoke a little from the sweet marinade). Turn the chicken over and brown for 2 minutes longer. Cover with a lid, turn the heat to low and let it finish cooking for about 8 minutes.
• Place remaining chili sauce and soy sauce mixture in a small saucepan and simmer over low heat until heated through, about 5 minutes. Serve over chicken.

SARINA'S SWEET GARLIC CHICKEN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Season chicken with garlic powder, seafood seasoning, oregano, steak seasoning, and black pepper. Place in a baking dish, skin-side up; chicken breasts should be close to each other but not overlapping.
• Dissolve brown sugar and honey in warm water.
• Melt butter in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Saute onion and garlic until onion is transparent, about 5 minutes. Do not drain. Add mixture to brown sugar-honey mixture. Pour evenly over chicken. Cover.
• Bake in the preheated oven until chicken is no longer pink in the center and juices run clear, about 30 minutes. Uncover and continue to bake until golden, about 10 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

SWEET GARLIC CHICKEN

Steps:

• Whisk together the sesame oil, soy sauce, garlic, honey, and ginger in a large glass or ceramic bowl. Add the chicken breast and toss to evenly coat. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap, and marinate in the refrigerator for 8 hours.
• Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Once the water is boiling, stir in the spaghetti, and return to a boil. Cook the pasta uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the pasta has cooked through, but is still firm to the bite, about 12 minutes. Drain well in a colander set in the sink. Stir in 1 tablespoon of butter and season with salt and pepper.
• Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter in a skillet over medium heat. Stir in the onion; cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Remove the chicken from the marinade, and shake off excess, then add to the skillet. Discard the remaining marinade. Cook the chicken breast strips until no longer pink in the center, about 10 minutes. Serve chicken over spaghetti.
