  • 3 tbsp chopped dry-roasted, salted peanuts
  • 3 tbsp crispy fried shallots , optional
  • 1 small hot red chili , minced
  • 3 tbsp hoisin sauce
  • 2 tbsp orange juice
  • 6 skinless, boneless chicken breasts
  • 1/2 tsp salt

Instructions

  • STIR cilantro with peanuts, shallots and chili in a small bowl. Stir hoisin with orange juice in another small bowl.
  • PREHEAT barbecue to medium. Sprinkle chicken with salt. Oil grill, then barbecue chicken, lid closed, until springy when pressed, 6 to 8 min per side. Transfer to a platter and immediately brush with half of hoisin mixture. Top with peanut mixture. Serve with remaining hoisin mixture.
