Good Frickin' Paprika Chicken

This grilled chicken recipe is marinated in a flavorful blend of spices and seasonings, making it juicy and delicious.

Ingredients

  • plain yogurt (6 tablespoons)
  • garlic (3 cloves)
  • ground paprika (3 tablespoons)
  • olive oil (2 tablespoons)
  • hot chile paste (1 tablespoon)
  • cayenne pepper (1 pinch)
  • whole chicken (1 (5 pound))
  • salt (0 )
  • olive oil (0.25 cup)
  • sherry vinegar (2 tablespoons)
  • ketchup (1 tablespoon)
  • hot chile paste (0.125 teaspoon)
  • paprika (1 pinch)
  • salt and pepper (0 )

Instructions

  1. Whisk together yogurt, garlic, 3 tablespoons paprika, 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 tablespoon hot chile paste, and cayenne pepper in a large bowl.
  2. Mix in chicken pieces and toss to evenly coat. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for 3 hours.
  3. Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat, and lightly oil the grate.
  4. Remove chicken from the bag and transfer to a plate or baking sheet lined with paper towels. Pat chicken pieces dry with more paper towels. Season with salt.
  5. Combine 1/4 cup olive oil, sherry vinegar, ketchup, 1/8 teaspoon hot chile paste, pinch paprika, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Set aside.
  6. Grill chicken, skin-side down, on the preheated grill for 4 minutes with grill lid closed.
  7. Turn chicken and grill with lid closed until well-browned and meat is no longer pink in the center, about 6 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh should read 180 degrees F (82 degrees C).
  8. Spoon sherry vinegar mixture over cooked chicken and serve.
