1
Prepare the Marinade
In a mixing bowl, combine the sweet vinegar, grated ginger, ground turmeric, minced garlic, chopped green chili, salt, and black pepper. Whisk until well mixed.
2
Marinate the Chicken
Add the chicken thighs to the marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight for the best flavor.
3
Grill the Chicken
Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Lightly brush the grill with vegetable oil. Remove the chicken from the marinade and place it on the grill. Cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked and nicely charred.
4
Serve
Once cooked, remove the chicken from the grill. Allow it to rest for a few minutes before slicing. Serve hot with your favorite sides.
