Ingredients

  • Basil and Five-Spice Chicken Legs4 chicken leg quarters
  • 16 leaves basil
  • 1 Tbs five-spice powder
  • 1 stalk lemon grass, coarsely chopped
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 2 Tbs vegetable oil
  • 3 Tbs water
  • Cantaloupe Salad1/2 cantaloupe, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 tsp five-spice powder
  • 2 Tbs rice vinegar
  • 1 1/2 Tbs vegetable oil
  • 2 tsp brown sugar
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 12 leaves basil, sliced

Directions

  • Lift the skin on the chicken leg quarters and press four basil leaves under each. Place chicken into resealable plastic bags; set aside.
  • In a blender, mix five-spice powder, lemon grass, soy sauce, vegetable oil, and water; puree until smooth.
  • Pour marinade into the plastic bags with the chicken; seal and shake until chicken is coated. Refrigerate at least 1 hour, or up to 24 hours.
  • When ready to cook, prepare coals for grill or preheat gas grill. Place chicken on grill over medium heat and cook, turning, until firm and cooked thoroughly, about 10 - 15 minutes per side.
  • While chicken is cooking, prepare the salad by whisking together the five-spice powder, rice vinegar, vegetable oil, brown sugar, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl; set aside.
  • Arrange cantaloupe slices on serving plates or platter. Drizzle salad dressing over cantaloupe; sprinkle with slivered basil leaves. Place chicken legs next to salad to serve.
