👨🍳 تعليمات
- 1
In a mixing bowl, combine the grated ginger, crushed garlic, melted red palm oil, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper (if using). This is your marinade.
- 2
Add the chicken pieces to the marinade and rub to ensure they are well coated. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or preferably overnight for best flavor.
- 3
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (around 400°F or 200°C).
- 4
Grill the chicken pieces for about 15-17 minutes per side, or until the skins are nicely charred and the juices run clear. The internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C) for breasts and 190°F (88°C) for thighs and legs.
- 5
During the last few minutes of grilling, add the onion rings to the grill to soften and char slightly. Be careful not to burn them.
- 6
Serve the grilled chicken hot with the grilled onion rings and fresh tomato wedges.
