Iron Grill
Anyone have any advice for grilling a whole chicken on a stove top cast iron grill?
Stovetop Grill Pan
A piece of cookware, often referred to as a riffle pan, that is used to grill foods in the kitchen using stovetop burners. Typically made as a heavy metal pan containing ridges spaced evenly across the bottom, the Grill Pan is built to closely simulate the grilling process for cooking various foods. A grill pan allows food to be slowly cooked, sealing the juices in meats, poultry, seafood, fish, and vegetables. This type of pan also steam cooks food by allowing moisture to build up in the open spaces between the raised ridges in the pan. The ridges also serve as a rack for allowing the fat contained in some foods to drain away from the food and collect in the spaces between the raised ridges without coming in contact with the food. Grill pans are made with both shallow and deep sides as well as bottoms containing either short or high ridges. Grill pans with short ridges are less suitable for steaming food than deeper ridged pans because there is less space between the ridges for moisture to build up. Similarly, food that had a firm, smoother textured surface cooked better on the ridges than foods with irregular surfaces such as ground meat.
Grilled Brined Chicken Breasts with Herbs
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook Time: 10 minutes
Servings: 4
Serving Size: 6 ounces
Brining does add extra time to otherwise quick-cooking chicken breasts, but there’s almost no extra work – and brining practically guarantees the meat will be moist and tender when you take it off the grill.
Ingredients
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves, about 6 oz. each
- 1/4 cup salt, preferably without additives
- 1 tablespoon molasses OR 1/4 cup brown sugar (optional)
- 2 tablespoons olive or canola oil
- 2 teaspoons lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh tarragon, oregano or other herb
salt and pepper
Directions
To brine the chicken, put 1 quart water and 1/4 cup salt (with molasses or brown sugar if using) in a bowl or zip-top bag. Stir to dissolve and add chicken pieces. Refrigerate for 1 – 2 hours.
When ready to cook, preheat grill to high. Make herb mixture: whisk together olive oil, lemon juice and chopped herbs. Remove chicken from brine and pat dry. salt and pepper both sides.
Oil grates and brush chicken with herb mixture. Grill first side about 5 minutes. Brush top (ungrilled) side with herb mixture, turn and brush top (grilled) side with herb mixture. Cook until meat is opaque and bno pink shows when you cut into the thickest part, another 4 – 6 minutes, depending on thickness. Brush both sides again and turn, about 30 seconds per side.
Serve immediately.
