Time 4h40m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

⅓ cup soy sauce
⅓ cup brown sugar
2 tablespoons lime juice
2 tablespoons orange juice
1 tablespoon Thai-style sweet chili sauce
1 teaspoon chile-garlic sauce (such as Sriracha®)
3 cloves garlic, minced
¼ teaspoon curry powder
4 skinless, boneless chicken thighs

Steps:

  • Place the soy sauce, brown sugar, lime juice, orange juice, sweet chili sauce, chili-garlic sauce, garlic, and curry powder in a large plastic zipper bag.

  • Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-low heat; lightly oil the grate.
  • Remove the chicken from the bag, pour the excess marinade into a small saucepan, and bring to a full boil for about 1 minute to sterilize the marinade.
  • Grill the chicken thighs until they are no longer pink in the middle and show grill marks, about 25 minutes, basting them generously with the sterilized marinade as they grill.
