Thai Grilled Chicken

Jump to Recipe·Print Recipe
 
I haven’t deserted you all.  I promise.  It has just been a crazy two weeks in the Jones household and something had to take a back seat, so I’m afraid it was you.  I hope you will forgive me.
 
Between the continuing battle with lice and the beginning of cake season (aka graduations and weddings), I have had zero time to myself.

 

 
And just to prove how completely insane I am, I decided to build myself a picnic table from some plans I found on the internet.  Great idea, lousy timing.

 

I was tired of trying to cram my large family of 8 around our tiny little patio set for 4.  I am so happy with the end result and it was actually a lot of fun to build.  I just should have waited a few weeks when I wasn’t covered in buttercream frosting to do it.
 
 
Thai Grilled Chicken

Now that my first official piece of woodworking is done, I am ready to grill to my heart’s content and gather my family around to enjoy the results.  This recipe is one of my favorite flavor profiles, thai.  I came up with it myself and it was really good.  I might throw in a bit of coconut milk to the marinade next time and see if I like it even better.  I’ll let you know!

    Sounds yummy! My hubby is Thai, his mom is from Thailand…he would love this. I will have to try it – if I ever cook again. He’s been doing all the cooking for the past few weeks 🙂 Thanks for sharing!

    So if you use Truvia, would it be less than 2 Tbsp? Thanks!

    Kristina:

    It depends on how sweet you would like it to be. I used about 1 1/2 Tb since Truvia is sweeter than sugar.
