Himalayas Salt Brick Grilled Chicken,himalayan salt block grilling,himalayan salt block chicken recipes,himalayan salt plate chicken recipes

Ingredients:

2 (4 by 8 by 2-inch) salt blocks
1/2kg chicken, preferably free-range
2 tbsps olive oil
4 garlic cloves, halved lengthwise
½ tbsp coarsely ground black pepper
Juice of ½ lemon

Method:

Place the salt blocks on a grill grate of a gas grill over low heat, close the lid, and warm for 10 minutes while you prepare the chicken. Turn the heat to medium and heat the block for 10 more minutes. Its surface should be about 375°F. If you are using a charcoal fire, set up a bilevel fire with half the grill set up for low heat (one layer of coals) and the other half set up for medium heat (two layers of coals). Remove and discard the neck and package of innards from the cavity of the chicken. Place the chicken, breast side down, on a cutting board. With a large knife or poultry shears, cut down the length of the spine on both sides. Remove the spine. Cut the breast side of the chicken in half lengthwise. You will now have two chicken halves. Wash the halves in cold water and pat dry with paper towels. Coat with the olive oil and rub all over with the cut sides of the garlic cloves; afterward tuck the pieces of garlic under the edges of the skin. Season all over with the pepper. Clean the area of the grill grate not occupied by the salt block with a wire brush. Put the chicken halves, skin side down, on the grill grate and, using grill gloves or thick oven mitts, put a hot salt block on top of each half. Close the lid and cook until the chicken skin is crisp and deeply grillmarked, about 15 minutes.Remove the blocks using the grill gloves, flip the chicken halves with tongs, put the blocks back on top of the chicken, close the lid, and cook until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the inside of the thicker thigh registers 170°F, 10 to 15 minutes.

    • 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened
    • 2 large cloves of garlic, smashed and minced
    • 1 heaping tablespoon of freshly chopped parsley
    • 1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese 
    • Method : 
    • Toasted bread:
      •  Preheat oven to 350°F.
      •  Cut the bread in half, horizontally. Mix the butter, garlic, and parsley together in a small bowl. Spread butter mixture over the the two bread halves. Place on a sturdy baking pan (one that can handle high temperatures, not a cookie sheet) and heat in the oven for 10 minutes.

Broil on high heat for 2-3 minutes until the edges of the bread begin to toast and the cheese (if you are using cheese) bubbles. Watch very carefully while broiling. The bread can easily go from un-toasted to burnt.

        Preheat oven to 350°F. Make the butter, garlic, parsley mixture as above. Make 1-inch thick slices into the bread, but do not go all the way through, just to the bottom crust. Put a teaspoon or two of the butter mixture between each slice. Wrap the bread in aluminum foil and heat for 15 minutes in the oven.

    spicy prawn pizza

    Ingredients
    FOR THE DOUGH250g pack white bread mix
    2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil , plus a bit extra
    150ml warm water
    plain flour , for dusting

    FOR THE SAUCE

    200g can chopped plum tomatoes
    1 tbsp tomato purée
    1 garlic clove , crushed
    pinch of sugar (caster or granulated)
    FOR THE TOPPING
    3 tbsp mascarpone
    3 tbsp (about 20g) finely grated Parmesan
    10 cherry tomatoes , halved
    12 large raw prawns (frozen and defrosted is fine), patted dry, deveined and butterflied (see tip, below)
    2 rosemary sprigs, needles roughly chopped
    generous pinch chilli flakes
    handful pitted green olives , halved (or use capers)
    small drizzle extra-virgin olive oil

    Method

    Make the dough the day before. Put the bread mix in a large bowl. Combine the oil with the warm water in a jug, then tip onto the mix. Stir to a soft dough and set aside for 5 mins.
    Flour the work surface and your hands well, then knead the dough for 5 mins until springy and smooth. Squish some oil around in a large food bag, then pop in the dough and tie the top, leaving the dough room to grow. Leave to rise in the fridge.
    To make the sauce, simply stir the ingredients together. When ready to cook, heat the oven as high as it will go. Dust a large baking sheet and the work surface with a little flour. Split the dough into 2 equal pieces. (Do not knead it or it will become too springy.) Roll the dough into large slipper shapes, about 30cm long. Lift onto the baking sheet.
    Spread the sauce over the pizzas, then scatter with small dollops of mascarpone, the Parmesan, cherry tomatoes, prawns, rosemary, chilli flakes, olives and plenty of seasoning. Drizzle with a little oil. Bake the pizzas for 10-13 mins until the base is crisp and golden, the prawns cooked through and the cheese bubbling. Transfer to a board and serve straight away.

      carrot cake

      Ingredients


        3 large eggs , lightly beaten
        140g grated carrots (about 3 medium)
        100g raisins
        grated zest of 1 large orange
        175g self-raising flour
        1 tsp bicarbonate of soda
        1 tsp ground cinnamon
        ½ tsp grated nutmeg (freshly grated will give you the best flavour)
        175g light muscovado sugar
        175ml sunflower oil
        For the forsting
        175g icing sugar
        1½-2 tbsp orange juice

        Method
        Preheat the oven to 180C/Gas 4/fan 160C. Oil and line the base and sides of an 18cm square cake tin with baking parchment. The easiest way to do this is to cut two long strips the width of the tin and put each strip crossways, covering the base and sides of the tin, with a double layer in the base.
        Tip the sugar into a large mixing bowl, pour in the oil and add the eggs. Lightly mix with a wooden spoon. Stir in the grated carrots, raisins and orange rind.
        Mix the flour, bicarbonate of soda and spices, then sift into the bowl. Lightly mix all the ingredients - when everything is evenly amalgamated stop mixing. The mixture will be fairly soft and almost runny.
        Pour the mixture into the prepared tin and bake for 40- 45 minutes, until it feels firm and springy when you press it in the centre. Cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then turn it out, peel off the paper and cool on a wire rack. (You can freeze the cake at this point.)
        Beat together the frosting ingredients in a small bowl until smooth - you want the icing about as runny as single cream. Set the cake on a serving plate and boldly drizzle the icing back and forth in diagonal lines over the top, letting it drip down the sides.
