Read this post earlier today and ran to the store for ingredients.  It's been marinating for the 6 hours and now its time to throw it on the egg!

Awesome brother golf!  I hope you enjoy it!

Here is a pic of what we modeled it from. Had Tiger Cried (Thai Steak) from our local Thai spot tonight. This stuff is so good.

Looks great but I procrastinate when it comes to recipe with ingredients I can't count on one hand   Also, always wanted to try roasting citrus and chili but forget!  My cheat version of Thai chicken marinade is this alone, pity eh!

I saw @CincyTiki post this awhile back and knew I had to try it.  My much better half and I love Thai food.  Fired up the MM and grilled them up.  This was very tasty and will get into the rotation.


A link to the original recipe:  http://www.recipetineats.com/thai-grilled-chicken-gai-yang/. 

Doing this tomorrow evening. Got the chicken marinading overnight, part boned breasts. Taken off the skin to let the marinade in as per recipe. That fish sauce is potent! I hope it's good, 5 lbs of chicken in the bowl!

Grilled these direct bone side down, should have turned them as well but didn't. Good texture but not enough lemongrass / chilli taste for me. Will try again another time.

Been wanting to give this one a try since I saw this post a few months ago.  Finally got around to it tonight.  Used boneless skinless thighs and grilled direct at 300F for about 25 minutes until they hit 165.
