    A tasty grilled chicken breast marinated with Thai flavours. This easy chicken recipe can be made ahead and cooked on the BBQ or grill.

    The marinade for this grilled chicken recipe is simply coconut cream, chilli, ginger and garlic.  Add lime and coriander (cilantro to some of you) and you are good to go!  I use this marinade on my mushrooms and tofu skewers for a vegetarian option too.

    grilled chicken

    This Thai grilled chicken recipe is one of my very early recipes and goes as far back as when the Chief Taster and I were first dating. It used to be a firm favourite with our friends too and I once used it as a bribe for a friend to paint our hallway for us. I like to offer food as bribes at times. Chicken and cheesecake always works!

    Although I used boneless chicken breasts for this grilled chicken recipe you could happily use this marinade on chicken thighs or drumsticks.  Just ensure that you score the chicken so that the marinade works its magic.

      This is delicious! I used skinless chicken breast and had it cold & sliced served on a bed of green salad. I used the "sauce" as a dressing which didn't look as good as yours because I forgot about it on the stove and it curdled 🙁 I will definitely make it again properly and eat it when it is hot.
