EQUIPMENT


To produce this awesome dish we've used the following equipment:

  • Weber Genesis E-330
  • Weber Genesis Rotisserie
  • Large Drip Trays
  • Weber Gloves

You could alternatively cook this on any large weber BBQ
with the requisite rotisserie. The charcoal rotisserie would be suited
a 57cm Weber BBQ such as the MasterTouch. There are rotisseries
available for all Weber Gas BBQs including the spirit and Q range.


FURTHER INGREDIENTS

  • 1 Lemon (to hold the chicken in place)


IN THE KITCHEN

  • To prepare the thighs, add all the ingredients into a large mixing bowl and stir.
  • Tip the meat and marinade into a zip lock style bag and massage the thighs to ensure the meat is properly coated.
  • Leave to marinade for at least an hour (ideally overnight).

  • To make the peanut sauce, combine all the ingredients except peanut butter and lime juice in a saucepan and simmer.
  • Feed the sauce the peanut butter a spoon at a time until you've reached your preffered consistency.
  • Bring to a boil/bubble and immediately reduce to a simmer - stirring throughout.
  • Turn off the heat, add a generous squeeze of fresh lime juice and stir in.
  • This can be enjoyed right away or left and re-heated on your Weber Genesis BBQ Side Burner when your chicken is ready.

  • When you're ready to get cooking, start assembling the spit; halve a lemon and use as a base point.
  • Thread on chicken thighs until the shaft is full with the marinated meat.
  • Top with the second lemon half to hold the meat in place.

AT THE BBQ

  • Setup your weber for indirect cooking.
  • Assemble the rotisserie as per manufactuer guidelines and cook at a low tempreture (circa 150 degrees celcius) for 60 - 90 minutes.

  • Try and resist the urge to check the chicken too frequently, you want to lock in as much moisture as possible.
  • After 50 minutes, give the chicken a thorough basting in peanut sauce for extra moisture, stickyness and flavour.
  • After 60 minutes, cut off a piece at the center of the spit to test for doneness.
  • Once cooked, remove from the BBQ and using a big sharp knife - slice your tender chicken from the spit and catch with a drip tray.
  • Enjoy with any sides you fancy; we recommend white rice, flatbread, a crisp beer or two and lashings of peanut sauce.
