Asian BBQ Chicken

from Our Best Bites

1/4 cup packed brown sugar

1/4 cup soy sauce

2 Tbsp lime juice (about 1 lime)

1/4 tsp cayenne pepper

1/4 tsp curry powder

3-4 garlic cloves, minced

1 tsp grated fresh ginger

8 boneless, skinless chicken thighs

Combine everything but the chicken in a small bowl. Whisk to dissolve brown sugar. Place marinade and chicken in a zip-lock bag. Pop that bag in the fridge for a minimum of 4 hours, or longer if you have it (even overnight). Preheat a grill (or an indoor grill pan or broiler). Spray cooking surface with cooking spray and place chicken on it to cook. Cook for 5-10 minutes on each side depending on the thickness.  Optional:  garnish with sliced green onions

*Tip:  When I make this I usually make 1 1/2 times the marinade.  I reserve some of the marinade before adding the chicken and then use it in the last few minutes of grilling, or just brush it on after for extra flavor.

For freezer: Combine sauce and chicken in zip top bag and freeze. Defrost overnight in the refrigerator. Grill as directed above.
