re: Mexican Chicken Sandwich, I'm a New Fan

quote:I'm still trying to determine if including them is necessary. Wouldn't the liquid from the can (especially under vacuum) be sufficient enough to marinate the chicken?
I noticed in the video that the guy grilled the peppers that he used in the marinade.
Any flavor from the peppers will have imparted in the canning liquid (which is most likely vinegar since these are pickled jalapeños) that I don't see why it is necessary to include them in the marinating process.
Seems like a waste especially if you just toss them out.
quote:Yes and no. There's definitely some cross-contamination issues since the peppers were in contact with raw chicken but, it can't be determined if he just charred the outside or cooked them to a safe temperature just by watching that video. Too much editing.
Any food safety issues there? Didn’t know if simply charring them on the grill would be enough food temp wise.
Also, the peppers are pickled meaning they have a reduced pH (typically 4.8-5.2) which is lower than salmonella's pH tollerance (between pH 6.5 and 7.5).
Realistically, the peppers are probably safe to eat but I wouldn't.

Why we basting chicken thighs with butter? Is that really necessary?

Made some last night. Added bacon, they were great!

How long do you marinate the thighs? I am wondering about the salt content more than spice. Bacon also is a solid addition to a chicken sandwich.

He had sliced ones in the marinate and whole ones on the grill.

Tried my hand at these chicken sandwiches last night. So simple but REALLY good.

I'm having a hard time thinking of ANYTHING that's not made better by adding bacon

I made some as well and chopped them up to use in burrito bowls. Great recipe.

If it’s butter and hot sauce then it’s like basting with a buffalo sauce.

Made this tonight and it was a hit, even my youngest didn’t mind the heat.
Couple of alterations to the basting sauce, used about 3oz less of the Cholula because it was coming off as overly acidic. I added about half an ounce of Agave syrup and microplaned two cloves of garlic into it while it melted. The garlic mellowed and the syrup tempered some of the heat.
I also served it with a slaw made with mayo, sour cream, lime, agave syrup, chipotle, cilantro and green onion. Added some major crunch and another depth of flavor.

I did chicken wings with this recipe. Pretty damn good and just the right amount of heat.

I did this, but seasoned with Hardcore Carnivor TexMex, and it was fantastic.

mine are marinating now to cook tonight - Question: is everyone using burger buns, I know in the video he stated potato buns? seems like it would need something a bit heartier to not get soggy/fall apart but at the same time don't want to bury the flavor in bread? I'm thinking kaiser roll or similar

Did we come to an agreement on marinating time? 24hrs too much?

get a bolillo, add some refried beans, cheese and avacado. Nice easy torta

Tried this Friday night but not as a sandwich. I just had the thighs by themselves, as I was cooking a bunch of different snacks around the pool. Came out great though I just used a generic spice rub from my spice rack, and I think I forgot the hot sauce. I also grilled and ate the peppers and the carrots from the marinade. I was not sick so I guess I cooked them long enough.

I rewatched the video just to make sure. It did appear that he used the peppers from the marinade, but he also cooked the crap out of them. He left them on longer than the thighs and lowered the grate at the end and really cooked the peppers.
Thnaks!

Gonna try these tonight on the recteq
Posted on 8/3/23 at 9:09 am to FutureCorridor49
I've got 8 thighs marinating in the fridge for tonight. It'll be close to 24 hrs.
I did the potato roll last time, the Mrs bought some Brioche buns this time.
I have thought about adding a chipotle slaw, but that probably won't happen tonight.
