Asian BBQ Chicken

Note… I combined this with a recipe of coconut jasmine rice and Asian slaw. Delicious!

Asian BBQ Chicken
Adapted from Cooking Light

1/4 C packed brown sugar


1/4 C soy sauce


2 T lime juice (about 1 lime)
 (I did lemon/lime since I doubled it and only had one lime on hand

1/4 t cayenne pepper


1/4 t curry powder


3-4 garlic cloves, minced


1 t grated fresh ginger


8 boneless, skinless chicken thighs (I used about 3 large chicken breasts)

Combine everything but the chicken in a small bowl. Whisk to dissolve brown sugar. Place marinade and chicken in a zip-lock bag. Pop that bag in the fridge for a minimum of 4 hours, or longer if you have it (even overnight)

Preheat a grill (or an indoor grill pan or broiler). Spray cooking surface with cooking spray and place chicken on it to cook. Cook for 5-10 minutes on each side depending on the thickness. (I broiled it in a baking dish.) Optional: garnish with sliced green onions

*Tip: When I make this I usually make 1 1/2 times the marinade (I doubled it). I reserve some of the marinade before adding the chicken and then use it in the last few minutes of grilling, or just brush it on after for extra flavor.
