Grilled Lemon Chicken With Nakano Seasoned Rice Vinegar

Monday, July 9, 2012 by Lolli Leave a Comment

I have spent so much time in my kitchen since I’ve gotten back home…it’s about time for me to post a recipe or two, don’t you think?

While I was out of town, I received a package with two Nakano seasoned rice vinegars (original and roasted garlic) plus a small recipe book. I found plenty of recipes that sounded delicious, but I let my oldest daughter choose the recipe that we’d make this week. She zoned in on the Grilled Lemon Chicken.

Author: Nakano Seasoned Rice Vinegar
Recipe type: Main dish
Ingredients
  • ½ cup low-fat lemon-flavored yogurt
  • ⅓ cup NAKANO Seasoned Rice Vinegar Original or Roasted Garlic
  • 1 piece (1x1-inch) ginger, minced
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tsp. ground cumin
  • ¼ tsp. pumpkin pie spice
  • 1-1/2 lbs. boneless, skinless chicken thighs or breasts
  • Skewers (if wooden, soak in hot water 15 minutes)
Instructions
  1. Heat grill (I use an electric grill and panini press - the best thing I've ever bought for my kitchen!).
  2. In large bowl, combine yogurt, rice vinegar, ginger, garlic, cumin, pie spice, ½ teaspoon salt, and ¼ teaspoon pepper; set aside.
  3. Cut chicken into 1½ to 2-inch cubes. Add chicken to yogurt mixture; toss to coat.
  4. Cover; refrigerate at least 20 minutes or up to 24 hours.
  5. Place chicken onto heated electric grill or thread chicken onto skewers. You can spoon marinade over the chicken now, but be sure to discard any remaining marinade.
  6. Grill chicken until no longer pink in center, about 3 to 4 minutes per side (or if using an electric grill like me, simply close the grill and cook chicken for about 5 minutes).
  7. Makes 4 servings, but there was plenty of marinade for me to add a little more chicken to feed my big family.

The kids loved it, too!

You can find more recipes using seasoned rice vinegars at Mizkan.com/recipes. This week, I added a splash of garlic rice vinegar to the grilled green beans and sweet peppers (yum) as well as the ham fried rice that we ate last night. A little goes a long way! I love that I can add so much flavor without adding calories or fat.
