Marinate chicken in vibrant Thai spices for an explosion of flavors.
Ingredients:
  • 1 bunch fresh cilantro with roots
  • 3 cloves garlic, peeled
  • 3 small red hot chile peppers, seeded and chopped
  • 1 teaspoon ground turmeric
  • 1 teaspoon curry powder
  • 1 tablespoon white sugar
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 3 tablespoons fish sauce
  • 1 (3 pound) chicken, cut into pieces
  • 0.25 cup coconut milk
Instructions:
  • Remove cilantro roots at the stem, mince them well, and set aside a few leaves for garnish. In a blender or food processor, mix the cilantro roots and leaves, garlic, chile peppers, turmeric, curry powder, sugar, and salt into a coarse paste. Add fish sauce and blend until smooth.
  • In a large shallow dish, generously rub the chicken with the flavorful cilantro paste. Cover and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours or overnight for optimal taste.
  • Fire up the grill until it's sizzling hot.
  • Brush the grill grate with a touch of oil. Place the chicken on the grill, generously brush with coconut milk, and cook for 8 to 15 minutes per side. Turn the chicken once and baste with coconut cream occasionally until browned, tender, and juices run clear.
