Preparatory work:

  • Chicken hearts: Clean by removing excess fat and blood vessels.
  • Lime: Grate the zest for the zest and squeeze the lime.
  • Marinate the chicken hearts: In a bowl, mix the soy sauce, sesame oil, garlic, lime juice, sea salt and pepper.
  • Add the chicken hearts and let marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours (preferably 4 hours).
  • Heat the plancha with grill to a high temperature
  • Thread the marinated chicken hearts onto the skewers.
  • Make the hoisin slaw: Mix the hoisin sauce with the Tomasu sambal and a little water to make a smooth sauce.

Let's cook!

  • Grill the chicken hearts: place the skewers on the grill rack. Grill the hearts for 3-4 minutes per side, until they are nicely browned and cooked inside.
  • Lacquer the hearts: Use a brush to lacquer the hearts on both sides with the hoisin-sambal sauce during the last minute of grilling.
  • Add the lime zest: Sprinkle the hearts with lime zest just before removing them from the BBQ.
  • Garnish (optional): Sprinkle some fresh cilantro and toasted sesame seeds over the hearts for extra flavor and texture.

Suggestion

  • Serve the lacquered chicken hearts with a fresh Asian cucumber salad and a glass of chilled beer, such as a pilsner or a light IPA, to balance the tangy and sweet flavors.
