Thai Grilled Chicken

2 servings

25 minutes

Thai-style grilled chicken is an exquisite blend of spiciness and sweetness that reflects Thailand's culinary traditions. The marinade made from soy sauce, garlic, and pepper gives the meat a rich and spicy flavor, while the honey-lime glaze adds a delicate sweetness and citrus freshness. Grilling gives the chicken an appetizing golden crust and a light smoky hue, making it an ideal dish for both street festivals and home dinners. Thai cuisine is renowned for its skillful balance of flavors – salty, sweet, sour, and spicy – and this recipe is a vivid example of its harmony. It’s best served with rice or fresh vegetables to highlight all the flavor nuances and make the meal even more unforgettable.
