This easy recipe comes big with the flavor. BBQ chicken is commonplace throughout Thailand and much of SE Asia. While the variations are as plentiful as the street vendors, this version is sure to please.

Categories     Chicken

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 lb chicken thighs
12 clove garlic, minced
1 tsp salt
4 Tbsp black peppercorns, whole, cracked to medium coursness
1 c cilantro, fresh, finely chopped
6-8 Tbsp lime juice, freshly squeezed

Steps:

  • 1. Make several slices into each chicken thigh to allow marinade to absorb better.
  • 2. Mix garlic and salt into a smooth paste.
  • 3. In a flat dish or large ziplock bag(s), combine garlic, peppercorns, cilantro and lime juice.
  • 4. Place chicken in marinade and rub the mixture into the the chicken well.
  • 5. Marinate overnight.
  • 6. TIP: Place chicken on the part of the grill with no flames with the other half of the grill with medium to high flames and close the lid. This will partially bake the chicken while reducing the chance of burning due to flare ups. When almost done (after approximately 20 minutes), open the lid and finish cooking over the flame to crisp the outside of the thighs.

This recipe was a bit too spicy for me, but I think that's because I used too much pepper. Other than that, it was a great recipe.

I'm not a big fan of garlic, so I used less than the recipe called for. It was still delicious!

My chicken was a little dry, but I think that's because I overcooked it. Other than that, this recipe was great.
