Ingredients:
2 large boneless skinless chicken breasts- 1 1/2 tbsp Kampot peppercorns
- 1/4 tsp sea salt
- 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
- 1/2 cup Creamy Kampot Apricot Brandy Pepper Sauce – or your sauce of choice
- parsley – for garnish
Instructions:
- Preheat BBQ grill on high heat.
- To make my Kampot pepper crust, grind up the Kampot peppercorns with a mortar & pestle or spice grinder until all peppercorns are broken, so you have coarse & finely ground pepper.
- Transfer crushed peppercorns to a shallow bowl, and add in sea salt and smoked paprika, combining ingredients with your hands or a large spoon.
- Dredge chicken breasts in pepper mixture pressing mix on to outside of breasts and place on tray to transfer to BBQ grill.
- Place chicken breasts on preheated BBQ grill for about 5 – 8 minutes on each side and cook for a total of 10 – 15 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through evenly. Be sure to check for doneness before removing from grill.
- Remove from grill and serve hot with my Creamy Kampot Apricot Brandy Pepper Sauce drizzled on top.
I served these delicious chicken breasts with some fluffy rice and grilled corn on the cob, garnished with parsley. A delicious evening meal.
