Crush peppercorns using a mortar and pestle, electric grinder, or spice mill until coarsely ground.
Finely chop the cilantro and place it in a mixing bowl. Mix in the freshly ground pepper, oyster sauce, soy sauce, fish sauce, oil, and cayenne. Add the chicken thighs and toss by hand until well coated. Cover with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for 4 to 12 hours.

Preheat the grill to medium-high heat and brush the grate with a light coating of oil.
Grill the marinated chicken thighs until they are springy to the touch, about 5 to 6 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches at least 155°F (68°C). Serve with the dipping sauce.
