Method

Marinade Preparation

1

Make the Marinade

In a medium bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, coconut sugar, lime juice, minced garlic, grated ginger, chili paste, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

Chicken Marination

2

Marinate the Chicken

Place the chicken thighs in a large zip-top bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring each piece is well coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish, and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight.

Cooking

3

Preheat the Grill

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 375°F to 450°F or 190°C to 230°C).

4

Grill the Chicken

Remove the chicken from the marinade and discard the remaining marinade. Place the chicken thighs skin-side down on the grill. Cook for 5-7 minutes, then flip and grill for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).

Serving

Garnish and Serve

Once cooked, remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes. Serve the grilled chicken thighs garnished with chopped fresh cilantro and lime wedges on the side.
