GRILLED CHICKEN BREASTS WITH CHIMICHURRI SAUCE
This is from the local paper. I've tried chimichurri sauce once and like it, so I want to try this one. The paper suggests to make the breasts all uniform size for even cooking: pound between sheets of waxed paper with a rolling pin, meat pounder or bottom of a heavy pot. Prep. time does not include marinading time.

CHICKEN WITH CITRUS CHIMICHURRI SAUCE
Chimichurri is a green sauce from South America that goes with grilled meats. My citrus version brightens up grilled chicken, which gets its juiciness from brining. -Tyffanie Perez, Springville, Utah

CHIMICHURRI CHICKEN
Green chimichurri, the classic Argentinian sauce often made with fresh herbs, garlic, red-pepper flakes and red-wine vinegar, livens up whatever it's spooned over: steak, chicken, tofu, fish or vegetables. In this simple recipe, boneless chicken gets three layers of zesty chimichurri flavor: First, it's marinated in the sauce. Then, it's sautéed, grilled or roasted, which further intensifies the flavors and encourages caramelization. Finally, just before serving, it's drizzled with fresh chimichurri for a bright finish. You can make the sauce in a food processor, but chopping the aromatics by hand makes it especially fragrant. Keep the extra to serve with the chicken, alongside fluffy white rice, crusty bread or creamy potatoes.

Steps:
- Make the sauce: On a cutting board, smash and coarsely chop the garlic with 1/2 teaspoon salt. Mash the mixture using the side of your knife until a coarse paste forms. Move the paste to the side of the cutting board, then chop the parsley and oregano together with the remaining 1 teaspoon salt. Combine the garlic paste and the chopped herbs and chop and mash until the herbs are bruised and fragrant.
- Transfer to a medium bowl. Add the red-pepper flakes, black pepper, vinegar and extra-virgin olive oil; stir to combine. (You should have about 3/4 cup chimichurri. It can be prepared in advance and refrigerated in an airtight container up to 2 days.)
- Make the chicken: Pat the chicken dry. If thickness varies greatly, pound to an even thickness, about 1/2-inch. Rub half the chimichurri all over the chicken and let sit for at least 10 minutes. (You could also refrigerate overnight; just let it come to room temperature before cooking.)
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Wipe off excess marinade from the chicken and cook until juices run clear, about 5 minutes per side for thighs and 4 minutes per side for breasts. (For grilling and oven instructions, see Tips below.)
- Serve with remaining chimichurri spooned over top.
GRILLED CHICKEN BREASTS WITH CHIMICHURRI SAUCE AND COCONUT RICE
This delicious spicy sauce is used to marinate the chicken before you grill it as well as to accompany the finished dish. The Coconut Rice is the perfect partner. You can marinate the chicken for as little as 30 minutes or up to 4 hours. Obviously the longer you marinate it the better flavour you will get in the chicken. Enjoy!

Steps:
- To make the sauce; in a food processor puree the garlic. Add the parsley and chili pepper and process until finely chopped. Add the oil, vinegar, broth and seasonings. Process to blend. Taste and adjust the seasonings. It should be very flavourful and spicy.
- In a zip lock bag combine 3 TBS of the chimichurri sauce with the 2 TBS of oil, stirring until smooth. Add the chicken breasts, turning to coat evenly. Close the bag and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or up to 4 hours.
- Preheat a grill for medium heat grilling. Remove the chicken from the marinade and grill for 7 to 10 minutes on each side, or until no pink is showing. Set aside and keep warm while you prepare the rice.
- In a medium non-stick saucepan toast the coconut over medium heat, stirring constantly for 2 to 3 minutes, or until lightly browned. Transfer to a bowl and set aside.
- In the same saucepan, heat the oil over medium high heat. Add the rice and sauté for about 3 minutes, until well coated and lightly browned. Add the broth and bring to a boil. Add the salt, pepper and lime slices. Stir with a fork. Cover tightly, reduce heat to low, and simmer for 15 to 20 minutes, or until rice is tender and fluffy.

- Start by preparing your chicken. Place each chicken breast, one at a time, inside of a zip top bag then use a kitchen mallet to pound the chicken down to about 1/3″ in thickness. Then set the chicken aside for a moment while you prepare the brine.
- For the brine, place the water, salt and honey in zip top bag (you may need more than one bag) and mix the contents well (shaking it around while the top is close should do the trick). Then place the flattened chicken breasts in the bag(s) and allow it to set for at least a half of an hour. Refrigerating the chicken overnight is okay to do.
- When you are ready to make the chicken, allow the clean grill to heat up. I like to oil the grates first before placing it on top of the grill.
- Remove each chicken breast from the brine and use a paper towel to pat them dry. Then place the chicken over the heat (about 500 degrees) to cook. Flip the chicken over after a couple of minutes and then transfer the chicken to a less hot portion of the grill to finish cooking. Your chicken should be done cooking within 8 minutes but, check for redness or use a thermometer if in doubt.
