Rice:
- 1 1/2 cups slow cook brown rice
- 3 1/2 cups water
- 1/4 cup beer or white wine
Instructions:
- Open beer start to drink.
- Soak wooden skewers in a shallow dish filled with water. In a large glass or ceramic dish, mix orange juice, Extravagonzo Roasted Garlic Culinary Oil, wine, Psycho Soy, Iguana Red Cayenne Pepper Hot Sauce, molasses, Catch a Fire Cajun Garlic , ginger and pepper.
- Cut orange, peppers, onion & broccoli into large bite-sized chunks (at least 1″ thick) and place in the dish.
- Add mushrooms and tomatoes.
- Stir veggies in marinade to coat.
- Cover and refrigerate while you prep chicken.
- Warm outdoor grill to medium heat.
- Rinse chicken and pat dry with paper towel (toss that towel!).
- In small bowl mix Fischer and Wieser Sweet, Sour, & Smokey Mustard, salt and pepper. Brush chicken with mustard mixture.
- Wash your hands and go stir those veggies so all sides absorb the marinade.
- When beer is half empty, refill can with salad dressing and squeeze in juice from 1/2 lemon.
- Put can on a disposable baking sheet. Place upright chicken on can like a stand, inserting can into cavity of chicken.
- Place baking sheet with beer and chicken on the preheated grill.
- Cover. Set your time for 1 hour.
- Start on a second beer or that remaining white wine.
- In a medium saucepan, pour rice, water, and 3-4 splashes of your beverage (about 1/4 cup) into medium sauce pan.
- Bring to a boil, stir and reduce heat to low.
- Cover with lid and cook for 25-30 minutes.
- Back to the kebabs.
- Remove veggies from fridge and using the sharp end of the skewer begin threading.
- Distribute veggies evenly onto 6-8 skewers.
- Check rice: It’s done when all liquid is absorbed but before it starts sticking to the bottom of the pan.
- Turn off heat under the rice and let it sit.
- Go back to grill.
- You should be at about an hour on the chicken.
- Carefully slice in to see meat has gone from pink to white.
- Remove from grill
- Allow to cool for at least 15 minutes so you don’t burn the hell out of yourself cutting it into pieces for your guest(s).
- In the meantime throw those kebabs directly on the grill.
- Flip them over after about 5 minutes to get the other side and allow to cook for another 5-8 min.
- Kebabs are done when veggies are al dente (softened but still firm).
- Turn off grill and remove from heat.
- Put rice in a serving dish, and chicken pieces and full skewers on a platter. Squeeze remaining lemon juice over chicken.
- Let people serve themselves.
