Muslos de pollo marinados para barbacoa

Ingredientes

• 10 chicken thighs
• rosemary, bay leaves or any other herbs (optional)
• 1/2 onion, peeled and quartered
• 5 garlic cloves, peeled and quartered
• 2 red chillies, fresh, stalks removed
• olive oil
• 200 g of soft brown sugar
• 6 tbsp of balsamic vinegar
• 200 ml of tomato ketchup
• 2 tbsp of Worcestershire sauce
• 2 tsp English mustard
• 1 tsp sea salt
• 1 tsp freshly ground black pepper

Preparación

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 180°C/gas mark 4

2. 2

   In a food processor blitz together the onion, garlic and chilli with olive oil. Take this paste and add to a bowl, mix in all the other ingredients for the sauce. Taste for seasoning

3. 3

   Remove the skins from the chicken thighs and place in the prepared marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Add to a baking tray, with any excess marinade, cover with foil and place in the oven

4. 4

   Leave to cook for approximately 30 minutes; during this time get the barbecue ready. You can also add some rosemary, bay leaves or any herbs to the barbecue to add some extra flavour to the meat

5. 5

   Remove the chicken from the oven and place the individual marinated thighs on the barbecue, using tongs to turn them over. Allow to cook (I found that getting a heatproof bowl and covering the chicken for a little bit helps to smoke it and makes it even jucier)

6. 6

   Check the chicken is cooked thoroughly and enjoy with a fresh salad
