Ingredients
2 pounds Chicken Thighs (boneless, skinless)1⁄2 cup Coconut Milk
4 tablespoons Tom Yum Paste
2 tablespoons Coconut Oil (melted)
1 tablespoon Fish Sauce
1⁄2 cup Lime Juice
2 tablespoons Brown Sugar
3 cloves Garlic (minced)
1 whole Lemongrass (minced)
1⁄4 cup Cilantro (chopped)
Directions
- Dry the chicken with a paper towel. Using a sharp knife poke holes on all sides of the chicken.
- In a large bowl combine coconut milk, tom yum paste, coconut oil, fish sauce, lime juice, brown sugar, garlic and lemongrass. Stir mixture to combine.
- Add chicken to bowl and then gently massage the chicken to thoroughly coat it in the marinade. Allow the chicken to marinate in the fridge for at least one hour; up to overnight.
- Take the chicken out of the fridge for 20 minutes prior to cooking. Position the top rack of the oven about 3 - 4 inches from the heating element. Set the oven to high broil and let it preheat.
- Place the chicken on a sheet pan covered with foil in a single layer. Pour all of the remaining marinade over the chicken. Broil chicken for 3-4 minutes then flip to the next side and broil for 3-4 minutes or until the chicken is fully cooked.
- Allow the chicken to rest for about 10 minutes before transferring to serving dish. Garnish with chopped cilantro just before serving.
