Grilled Basil and Cilantro Citrus Chicken
More grilled chicken? Yes, can't get enough. It is the go-to meal. When out of ideas, a whole chicken and a blender never fails me. This is not the prettiest looking marinade, but it sure is tasty.
Handful of cilantro
20 or so large basil leaves
2 garlic cloves
2 shallots
1 Thai chili
1/2 cup orange juice
juice of 1 lime
3 tbsp sweet soy sauce
3 tbsp fish sauce
1 tbsp tamarind concentrate
1 tbsp palm sugar
1 tbsp vegetable oil
Put everything in a blender and liquify.
Cut 1 whole chicken into 8 pieces. Marinade chicken, preferably overnight, or at least for sever hours. We used the gas grill tonight, cooking the chicken over medium flames for about 25-30 minutes. I served with wok fried bok choy and a little Thai style fried rice made with shredded pork, minced onions, green onions, eggs, fish sauce, and cooked long grain rice.
