Sweet and Spicy Grilled Coconut Chicken Thighs

Updated: Aug 29, 2023



Here is another recipe I developed during COVID lockdown:


Today the grocery store had chicken thighs! (That’s it - no other chicken). So I made a marinade using:


1 can coconut milk

1/2 cup light brown sugar

1/2 cup gochujang

juice of 2 limes (microwave those limes for 40 seconds before squeezing and you’ll get double the juice)

5 garlic cloves, pressed

2 scallions, chopped

bunch of mint leaves, chopped

bunch of cilantro, chopped

salt

pepper


I mixed everything up, added the thighs (plus one chicken breast I had frozen for my son who won’t eat thighs), and let the chicken hang out in the refrigerator until grilling time.


While my husband, Aaron, expertly grilled the chicken, I took the excess sauce and boiled it for 10 minutes until it thickened. The I spooned the sauce on the chicken and added limes for squeezing and cilantro.

To accompany the chicken, I made basmati rice (in my pressure cooker) and a caesar salad to accompany the chicken (see my post for the caesar salad recipe).
