How about a delicious Turkish style grilled chicken recipe that you can easily prepare?
Ingredients
- 1 kg chicken thighs
- 2 tbsp chili pepper I used Aleppo pepper
- ½ tsp salt
- ½ tsp black pepper
- 2 tbsp tomato paste
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- ¼ cup olive oil
Instructions
- If you are going to use chicken breast, cut it horizontally as if you were making shcnitzel. If you are going to use chicken thighs, remove the skin and bones.
- Prepare the marinade for the chicken. Mix olive oil, red pepper flakes, salt, black pepper, thyme and tomato paste.
- Pour marinade over chicken. Mix thoroughly with your hands. Then cover it and marinate it in the refrigerator for about 2 hours.
- Once the first heat of the barbecue fire has passed and it reaches medium temperature, you can start cooking the chicken.
- Since there is oil in the marinade, you don’t need to oil the grill. Place the chickens directly on the grill and start cooking.
- Do not try to separate the meat from the wire early. Wait until it is cooked and releases itself from the wire.
