Deviled chicken breast

Based on a honey hoisin marinade and better known as “deviled chicken breast”, this is one of the world’s most famous grilled chicken breast recipes. A very simple but perfect way to grill a chicken breast on the barbecue and give it a sweet, crispy taste you’ll love.

Ingredients

The ingredients you need for a delicious BBQ chicken fillet for 4 people are :

4 free-range chicken breasts
3 tablespoons hoisin* sauce
3 tablespoons honey (or maple syrup)
3 tablespoons tomato sauce
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon sesame oil

Use a cutting board and a sharp knife to cut each chicken breast in half lengthwise.
When your chicken breast comes out of the fridge, let it rest for 30 minutes, just long enough for it to come to room temperature. Meanwhile, mix together the ingredients for the hoisin sauce, honey, tomato sauce, soy sauce and sesame oil for the honey hoisin marinade. As an alternative to honey, maple syrup can also be used, adding a touch of sweetness to the marinade.

Place the chicken fillet in a bowl and pour the marinade over the chicken. Cover the bowl with a piece of aluminum foil and let stand in the refrigerator for 2 to 3 hours, stirring occasionally during this time.

Grilling a chicken fillet on the BBQ :

Set up and preheat your nomadiQ grill a few minutes before you start.
Place the breasts on the grill and turn them over halfway through cooking, which takes about 5 to 7 minutes on each side. Once the chicken fillet is a beautiful caramel color, remove from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute and is the key to a delicious piece of juicy chicken breast.

And now… enjoy your own incredible “deviled chicken breast”.

If your nomadiQ portable barbecue has an enclosed hob, you can also use it for grilling. This is in case you want the chicken fillet to be less crispy on the outside and juicier on the inside.

As an alternative to BBQ chicken fillet, you can also use this marinade for chicken wings, drumsticks or thighs!

Then clean your barbecue

Once you’ve finished cooking, let your grill cool down, which only takes 4 to 5 minutes. So follow our cleaning tips.

*Hoisin sauce is not available in all supermarkets. But don’t worry. It’s easy enough to make a similar marinade using everyday ingredients.
