4 boneless, skinless chicken thighs (about 1 pound)
3 tablespoons canola oil
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons minced garlic
1/4 cup cilantro leaves
2 limes, 1 zested and 2 juiced
2 tablespoons seasoned rice vinegar
2 tablespoons canola oil
1-inch chunk ginger, peeled and grated (about 1 tablespoon)
1 lime, zested and juiced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 cup chicken stock
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon Thai green curry paste
1 tablespoon seasoned rice vinegar
3 scallions, white and green parts, chopped, for garnish
1 pound spaghetti, cooked al dente and sprayed with canola oil spray

Steps:

For the chicken: Combine all the ingredients in a nonreactive bowl and let stand at room temperature for 20 minutes. Prepare a grill pan to medium-high heat and place the chicken thighs on the pan, cooking for 4 minutes per side.
