Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Grilled Raspberry Chicken Thighs and Drumsticks.
Step 1
Begin by taking a large resealable plastic bag and pouring in 1 cup of raspberry vinaigrette along with 1 tablespoon of finely chopped rosemary.
Step 2
Add the chicken thighs and drumsticks, seal the bag tightly, and give it a gentle shake to ensure the chicken is thoroughly coated.
Step 3
Let this flavorful mixture marinate in the refrigerator for one hour, allowing the herbs and vinaigrette to infuse the meat with deliciousness.
Step 4
In a separate small bowl, blend the remaining tablespoon of rosemary with 1/2 cup of seedless raspberry jam, 4 1/2 teaspoons of raspberry vinaigrette, a splash of lime juice, soy sauce, and a sprinkle of garlic powder until everything is harmoniously combined.
Step 5
Prepare your outdoor grill for indirect medium heat, and lightly oil the grill grate to keep the chicken from sticking.
Step 6
Once the chicken has marinated, drain it and discard the marinade.
Step 7
Place the chicken pieces skin-side down on the grill rack, cover, and let them cook over indirect heat for about 20 minutes.
Step 8
After this initial grilling, flip the chicken and continue cooking, basting occasionally with the raspberry jam mixture.
Step 9
Keep grilling until a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the chicken reads 180°F (80°C), which should take an additional 10 to 20 minutes.
Step 10
Enjoy the tantalizing aroma and the sweet, savory flavors that will make your outdoor gathering unforgettable.
