Method
Marinade Preparation
Prepare the Marinade
In a medium bowl, combine guava paste, soy sauce, honey, lime juice, minced garlic, minced ginger, red pepper flakes, and salt. Whisk together until the guava paste is fully dissolved and the marinade is smooth.
Marinate the Chicken
Place the chicken thighs in a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the guava marinade over the chicken, ensuring each piece is well coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight for maximum flavor.
Cooking
Rest the Chicken
Once cooked, remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for about 5 minutes. This helps to retain the juices.
Serving
Plate and Garnish
Slice the chicken thighs and arrange them on a serving platter. Garnish with fresh chopped cilantro and lime wedges. Serve warm.
