Ingredients
Cooking Instructions
step 1
Prepare the marinade for the chicken. Use a mortar and pestle to ground Whole Coriander Seeds (1 tsp), Black Peppercorns (1 tsp), and Garlic (4 cloves). Then add the herb mix, Coconut Sugar (1 Tbsp), Salt (1/4 tsp), Ground Turmeric (1 tsp), Light Soy Sauce (1 Tbsp), Oyster Sauce (1 Tbsp), and Evaporated Milk (1 cup) in a large mixing bowl. Mix until well combined.
step 2
Place the Boneless, Skin-On Chicken Thighs (1.5 lb) in the marinade bowl and cover it with plastic wrap. Let it marinate in the fridge for at least 4 hours but preferably overnight (make sure to remove the excess marinade a bit before grilling).
step 3
Prepare the dipping sauce. In a small mixing bowl, add Shallots (4), Fresh Cilantro (1 bunch), Jasmine Rice (2 tsp), Crushed Red Pepper Flakes (1 tsp), Coconut Sugar (1 Tbsp), Tamarind Sauce (1/3 cup), 2 Tbsp of Lime Juice (1), and Fish Sauce (2 Tbsp). Mix until well combined.
step 4
Once the chicken has marinated, heat the grill pan over high heat. Once hot, lower the heat to medium-high. Brush Vegetable Oil (1 Tbsp) onto the pan. Place the chicken in the pan and cook for about 5-8 minutes on each side.
step 5
Slice the grilled chicken and transfer it to a serving platter. Serve with dipping sauce and Glutinous Rice (2 cups).
