Smoked Chicken Breasts with Avgolemono Sauce

Текущая фотография рецепта

1 1/2 pounds of bone in chicken breasts, ribs removed washed and dried. I used Penzey's Greek seasoning on the chicken.
I used 3 ounces of Pecan wood which has a mild smoke flavor and won't overpower the sauce. If you don't have a smoker the oven or grill will work fine.
Preheat smoker to 250^.
Smoke for 45 minutes. Finish on grill with the baste with skin on or off. Keep heat to medium to avoid flair ups and baste frequently until browned and done.
Avgolemono suace ingredients. The blue Hibiscus is for photo appeal only. Our plants are in bloom now. If dried the flowers can be used as tea.
Combine rice and chicken stock in small sauce pan.
Cover and simmer on low heat for about 25 minutes until the rice is breaking down.
Cool slightly then process in a blender or immersion blender.
Add egg yolks one at a time, lemon juice and process until fully incorporated.
Transfer to a sauce pan. Add salt/white pepper and simmer for 2-3 minutes until hot. Check for acid, spice and thickness. Adjust as necessary.
I served with Spanakopita, Tzatziki, grilled asparagus and butter lettuce. Chives and Feta cheese can be used as a garnish.
