Authentic Thai Street Food: Marinated Grilled Chicken

This is the most wonderful marinated grilled chicken dish. It is a staple in Thailand on most any street corner and it is delicious. It is super easy to prepare and goes great with a salad and steamed rice.
Prep Time 1 day
Cook Time 16 minutes
Servings: 6 servings
Course: Main Course
Cuisine: Thai

Ingredients
  

  • 2 lbs of Chicken. I prefer boneless skinless thighs.
  • ½ cup Coriander/Cilantro Roots or Stems. Roots can be hard to find so stems will work perfectly.
  • 6 cloves Garlic
  • 1 Tbsp freshly ground Black Peppercorns
  • 3 Tbsp Thai Fish Sauce
  • 1 Tbsp Soy Sauce
  • 2 Tbsp Oyster Sauce
  • 1 Tbsp Sugar
  • 1 Lime juiced.
  • Dash of Vegetable Oil helps the marinade adhere to the meat.

Equipment

  • Bowl
  • Air Fryer or Oven

Method
 

  1. Grind your black peppercorns and then combine all ingredients into a mini food processor and blend into a smooth mixture. If you’re feeling adventurous, you can also use a mortar and pestle.
  2. Pour over the meat and refrigerate for at least overnight. Then remove from marinade and grill until done. You can also roast them in the oven and an air fryer is particular good. Air fryer timing is 16-20 minutes at 375F. Turning once half way through cooking. You can also oven roast, but I suggest 425F.
  3. Serve with Thai Jasmine rice and Nam Pla Prik sauce or sweet Thai chili sauce.
