Chicken with Guinness and Lime

Guinness and lime make a great marinade for chicken in this favourite family dish. It would work equally well with pork.

Method

Ingredients

- 300 ml Guinness
- 1 Tbs Balsamic vinegar
- 2 Limes (1 whole, 1 for freshly grated zest and juice)
- 2 star anise
- 2 chicken quarters
- 1 pinch Salt and pepper
- 1 tsp Cajun seasoning
- 2 Garlic cloves (crushed)
- 2 Tbs clear honey

Method

1

Put all ingredients, except the whole lime, chicken, salt, and pepper in a saucepan and bring to a boil, stirring well.

2

Reduce the heat and simmer for 10 minutes until reduced by half. Leave to cool and remove the star anise and reserve for garnish, if liked.

3

Score the chicken quarters and season generously with salt and pepper. Place the chicken in a shallow dish, and pour the cooled sauce on the chicken until completely coated.

4

Cover the chicken and leave to marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or overnight.

5

Line a grill pan with foil, and lay the chicken in the pan, spooning over the marinade.

6

Cook the chicken under a preheated low to medium grill, turning and basting with the marinade halfway through cooking. Grill chicken for 35-40 minutes, or until chicken skin is charred and the juices run clear.

7

While chicken is cooking, cut the whole lime into quarters. Add the lime wedges to the pan about 25-30 minutes through the cooking time.

8

Serve chicken with the pan juices, lime wedges, the reserved star anise and salad, if liked.
