Cách làm

1. 1

   Rinse chicken pieces. Drain. Trim off excess fat. Cut each chicken thigh in half crosswise. Cut open any thick parts.

2. 2

   Combine the marinade ingredients in a bowl and mix well.

3. 3

   Coat the chicken with the marinade. Marinate for a few hours (preferably overnight) in the refrigerator.

4. 4

   Preheat a lightly oiled grill over medium high heat. When hot, add the chicken pieces. Cook until cooked through and slightly caramelized, about 4 to 6 minutes each side. Reduce the heat if the chicken starts to burn. You can also cook the chicken indoor on a grill pan or in a skillet.
