Chicken with Asparagus and Peas
Ingredients
  • 1/4
    cup ketchup
  • 3
    tablespoons hoisin sauce
  • 4
    whole chicken legs, about 2-1/2 lb.
  • 4
    slices bacon
  • 2
    bunches small carrots with tops, trimmed, or 12 oz. baby carrots
  • 3/4
    pound sugar snap peas
  • 8
    ounces asparagus, trimmed and cut in 2-inch lengths
  • 1
    tablespoon small fresh mint leaves
Directions

1. For sauce, in small bowl stir together the ketchup and hoist sauce; set aside.

2. Sprinkle chicken with 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. For charcoal grill, place chicken on rack, bone side up, directly over medium coals. Grill, uncovered, 35 to 45 minutes or until no longer pink (180 degrees F), turning once halfway through and brushing with sauce last 10 minutes. (For gas grill, preheat grill. Reduce heat to medium. Place chicken on rack over heat. Cover; grill as above.)

3. Meanwhile, for vegetables, in 12-inch skillet cook bacon over medium-low heat until crisp. Drain on paper towels, reserving drippings in skillet. Add carrots to drippings; cook and stir 5 minutes. Add peas and asparagus; cook and stir 6 to 8 minutes or until vegetables are tender. Remove from heat. Crumble bacon. Stir in mint and bacon. Serve with chicken. Makes 4 servings.

Cooking these fabulous, delicate baby vegetables in bacon oil is a crime against our palates and our health. Toss out the bacon oil and just use 2-3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil to saute the veggies. Hoison is just asian bbq sauce you can get at Safeway or any major grocer. It gives the chicken a great flavor (wouldn't want to baste chicken w/ just catsup, right? :)
