Barbecue Chicken Sandwiches with Charred Green Onion Sauce
Chicken thighs often have the advantage of being sold boneless and skinless at the grocery store, allowing for quick and even cooking. This therefore makes them the perfect cut for sandwiches for weeknight meals in the backyard. The meat is first quickly marinated in an oil and vinegar mix. This helps loosen the chicken’s muscle fibres slightly, making the meat more tender and flavourful in just 15 minutes. With a charred-green-onion mayo, it’ll be your new seasonal favourite.

Grilled Chicken Legs with North Carolina Barbecue Sauce
The Southern United States is known for its grilling mastery. For this recipe, we drew inspiration from North Carolina, where a distinctive style of barbecue sauce was invented. Made with a generous amount of vinegar to help preserve the meat, it’s a far cry from the thick, smoky and sweet sauces more typical of Texas-style barbecue. In true North Carolina fashion, the tangy sauce is brushed onto the chicken as it cooks, and served on the side for extra punch. To ensure tender, flavourful meat, brine the chicken beforehand with salt and spices. It’s a Southern classic worth discovering… or rediscovering.

Indian-Spiced Chicken Skewers with Curry Potatoes and Raita Sauce
We’ve all had dry chicken skewers at least once. Here’s an unbeatable method for juicy, flavourful skewers every time. The secret ingredient? Mayonnaise! It helps the marinade, made with Indian-style spices, stick to the chicken-breast cubes. Plus, because it’s thicker than oil, the marinade won’t drip through the grates as the skewers cook. Serve them with a cooling yogurt-based raita and fragrant potatoes for a meal you’ll want to make all summer long.

Spicy Lemon-Pepper Barbecue Chicken Wings
We’re used to baking chicken wings in the oven, but during summer they come into their own on the grill, especially when coated with baking powder before cooking. Why? This raises the pH level of the chicken’s skin, helping the proteins break down to form a crisp, golden coating. At the end of cooking, toss the wings in a rich sauce made with habanero pepper, lemon, pepper and butter, and then use it for dipping, too.
