Type: Chicken, Poultry
Serves: 4 people

Recipe Ingredients

4   Chicken breasts - boned and halved
1 tablespoon 15mlBrown sugar
1 teaspoon 5mlBasil leaves - dried
4 tablespoons 60mlPeanut oil
3   Cloves
4 tablespoons 60mlSoy sauce
1   Pepper
2 tablespoons 30mlLemon juice

Recipe Instructions

Prepare the marinade by combining the peanut oil, soy sauce, lemon juice and brown sugar. Place the chicken breasts in a single layer in a glass dish.

Sprinkle with garlic, pepper, basil leaves and cloves. Pour the marinade over the chicken breasts. Let stand refrigerated for at least 4 hours (the longer the better), turning the breasts over from time to time.

Preheat the grill - it is ready when ALL the coals have a THICK and EVEN coating of gray ash.

Place the chicken breasts on the grill a few at a time. Baste with marinade.

Grill five minutes on the first side. Turn over and grill the other side until the chicken is fork tender and juices run clear when pierced with a fork (the chicken should be lightly browned) (5-9 minutes).

DON'T OVERCOOK!

Serve with chutney, cooked rice and a green salad.
