Coconut Chicken image

A yummy sticky coconut chicken that pairs wonderfully with rice. You can use the leftover coconut milk as part of the liquid required in making your rice for a nice mildly sweetened white rice. Preparation/cook time does not include marination time, so plan accordingly.

Time 25m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

6 -8 boneless skinless chicken thighs
1 cup coconut milk
1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger
1 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
3/4 cup rice vinegar
1/2 cup sugar
3 tablespoons soy sauce
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes

Steps:

  • Marinade chicken in coconut milk, ginger, pepper and red pepper flakes at least one hour (longer is better).
  • Remove chicken from marinade and grill on barbecue.
  • While the chicken is grilling, bring glaze ingredients to a boil over medium-high heat and cook until mixture is reduced and thickened, about 8-10 minutes. Be patient because it takes a little while. But once it starts getting really thick, immediately take it off the heat!
  • Glaze both sides of chicken the last few minutes of grilling and serve chicken over rice.
