Ingredients

  • 1 kg (2lbs) lamb ribs
  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • ¼ cup lemon juice
  • 2 tbsp chopped parsley
  • 2 tsp chopped rosemary
  • 1 tbsp dried mixed herbs
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • ½ tsp chilli flakes
  • 2 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp pepper

Directions

  1. Finely chop the herbs and garlic then place in a bowl. Add the oil, lemon juice, dried herbs, smoked paprika and chilli flakes then season generously with salt and pepper.
  2. Place the lamb ribs in a dish suitable for marinating then pour over the marinade. Cover and allow to marinate for at least 1 hour but up to 24 hours in the fridge. 
  3. Grill the ribs over medium-hot heat for 20-30 minutes. It’s important to allow the fat to render out to give you the juiciest end result possible.
  4. Once the ribs are cooked, remove from the heat and allow to rest for 5 minutes then serve with grilled lemons. 

Sweet and spicey Chicken Braai

Ingredients:

  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breast, or 8 boneless thighs
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 tsp ground ginger
  • 2 Tbsp soy sauce
  • 2 Tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 1 Tbsp sriracha sauce
  • 1/4 cup sweet thai chili sauce
  • 2 Tbsp honey
  • 1 lime (optional)
  • 2 green onions (for garnish)

Directions:

  1. Combine garlic, ginger, soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, sriracha sauce, chili sauce, and honey in a medium bowl. I doubled the recipe because I was cooking for a crowd!
  2. Fillet the chicken if you are using breasts – or, you can place them (one by one) in a large ziplock bag and pound them flat using a rolling pin or mallet. This makes them cook a little faster on the grill, which helps when grilling with a sweet sauce that can char.
  3. Place the chicken in a large glass casserole dish (or in a large ziplock bag) and pour 3/4 of the sauce over the top. Reserve 1/4 for brushing on the chicken at the end. 
  4. Cover the chicken and refrigerate for 2-3 hours or up to 6 hours.
  5. When it’s time to grill the chicken, oil the grill and place the chicken breasts on the grill and cook on medium heat until they are cooked through. It’s takes around 15-20 minutes, being sure to flip them!
  6. When the chicken is nearly done cooking,  brush the reserved sauce over them.
  7. Top with green onions and a squeeze of lime and serve!

Crispy korean chicken braai wings

For more similar awesome chicken braai recipes click here! more recipes…

Ingredients

  • chicken wings

Sauce

  • 3 Tbsp Tomato Sauce
  • 2 Tsp Chilli paste – gochujang
  • ¼ Cup honey
  • rice wine vinegar 
  • ¼ cup brown sugar
  • 2 Tbsp Soy sauce
  • 2  Tbsp minced garlic
  • 1 Tbsp sesame oil

Directions

  1. First, you need to impart as much flavor into the wings as possible. The tasty gochujang (Korean red chili pepper paste) based marinade does the job wonderfully, and in only an hour if that’s all the time you have. You can also let the wings marinate overnight if you are prepping them ahead of time. 
  2. When you are ready to cook, fire up that grill. The grilling process is pretty basic, cooking the wings up until they are nice and crispy.
  3. Note that I do include instructions in the recipes notes in you prefer to baked these in the oven. They come out just as good!
  4. The marinade that you left the wings in doubles as the sauce! You need to make sure that you boil it down a bit until it thickens slightly.
  5. This gives it the right texture, and also gets rid of any bacteria the sauce may have picked up from the chicken. 
  6. When the wings are all crispy, you give them a final brush of the sauce before garnishing them with sesame seeds and sliced green onion. Be prepared to get messy!
