Total time: 3600 s
Yield: 2-3 people
Cuisine: British
Ingredients: 1 kg chicken thighs; 2 tbsp fresh lime juice; 1 tbsp rapeseed oil; 2 tbsp light soy sauce; 1/2 tbsp Vietnamese fish sauce (use a little less if using Thai fish sauce as it’s stronger); 2 tbsp soft brown sugar; 2-3 cloves crushed garlic; 1 large knob ginger finely grated; 1 hot fresh chilli finely chopped (or use maybe a tsp chilli flakes); 1 tbsp chopped coriander; 1 tbsp fresh coriander finely chopped, stalks included

Quick, easy and delicious - this super simple marinade takes chicken thighs to the next level. Pop them on a grill and enjoy as you like. I added them to Vietnamese style banh xeo, but they’d be great with many other Asian style dishes too.

Steps

1 hr (min) - including marinading time

1

Put the chicken thighs in a bowl or bag and add all the marinade ingredients. Mix everything together and leave for at least 30 minutes to infuse.
2

When ready to cook, bring the bbq (I used gas) up to 200 degrees c. Add the chicken thighs, cook on one side for 7 minutes, then flip and cook on the other side. Remove from the heat and allow to rest before serving.
3

No pressure to use a bbq. You could use a grill pan too. Just bring the pan up to a medium heat and do the same. Just double check the chicken is cooked before eating as temperatures / cooking time may vary between bbq and pan.
4

In the end I used my chicken as part of a Vietnamese style banh xeo.

Love cooking food that I can share with friends. Never happier than when I’ve got people over for dinner enjoying great food (and great wine of course). I’m a big fan of seasonal ingredients and coming up with quick and fresh ideas for during the busy working week.
