I just made these for dinner. Suggestions: Marinate overnight(great flavors, need more time) Place on preheated grill(high) skin side down 5 min. Turn heat immediately to low. Cook on low (skin side up) additional 35 min. Keep in warm oven while you finish additional sides. Fantastic !!! <br/>p.s. I used Bone in, Skin on thighs.<br/>Thank you for the post!

Wow oh wow oh wow!!!! May be one of my top grilled chicken recipes of my life! Grilled this on the grill, increased the garlic and used crushed red pepper flakes in place of the chili. AMAZING!!! 5 and 7 year old loved and I am not sure I've had a better chicken recipe on the grill EVER!!! Loved it!

We absolutely love this marinade!! I made it a little different the 2nd time. I added a little oyster and hoisin sauce and tons of the grated ginger And I was out of the Thai chilies so I used sambal chili paste. YUM. Both ways were so delicious on grilled chicken thighs and legs. Tonight will be our 4th time. My BF is addicted to it. Marinade it overnight if u have time you won't be sorry!!!

This was a terrific recipe. I was having a bunch of people over and marinated 3 lbs. of boneless, skinless thighs with this recipe and had another recipe for the other 2 1/2 lbs. I cut each boneless thigh into four pieces and threaded the pieces on bamboo skewers. I used Asian hot pepper paste in place of the chile as I wasn;t sure what was meant by that-chili powder or diced chili peppers or sauce. I marinated it maybe 3 hours and then grilled them. This was excellent. Nine adults and 2 children went through six pounds of chicken. Most people preferred this to the other recipe. I would definitely want this again and will be forwarding the recipe as people have asked me for it.

Great recipe! Thanks very much. We tried it out last night on the Weber grill with "Grilled Sweet Potato Salad" as a side. What wonderful flavors! I did not have fish sauce and used the same amount of Teriyaki sauce instead. Excellent. I also marinated the thighs over night, i.e., for a whole day. The meat was soooo tender and sooo tasty. Will do this again soon with friends.

Hi all. Currently live in Adelaide, Australia. Have 2 beautiful teenage daughters who also love cooking and trying new recipes. I absolutely love chilli - even have it on poached eggs for breakfast!!
I collect cookbooks - not that I need them now I have found this website!! I do like to sit with a glass of wine and skim through looking at recipes. Ainsley Harriot is a favourite - his spaghetti with red wine bolognaise sauce is heavenly!!
I have a collection of recipes dating back to the 1970's (started collecting them when I was 14) - my children keep saying they want it when I die!!(no intention of going anywhere yet!). I am now doing up 2 books for the kids with my best recipes to give them when they leave home to stop any arguments.
