Steps:
- Preheat a grill to medium high and prepare for indirect grilling: On a charcoal grill, bank the coals to one side. On a gas grill, turn off half the burners. Toss the chicken with the ginger, 1 tablespoon fish sauce and 1 teaspoon each brown sugar, lime zest, lime juice and chili-garlic sauce. Season with salt and pepper. Place the chicken skin-side up on the cooler side of the grill; cover and cook until a thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 165 degrees F, about 20 minutes. Move to direct heat and cook, uncovered, flipping occasionally, until the skin is charred and crisp, about 5 more minutes.
- Meanwhile, make the dressing: Whisk 2 tablespoons water and the remaining 1 tablespoon fish sauce, 2 teaspoons brown sugar, 1 teaspoon lime zest, 2 teaspoons lime juice and 1/2 teaspoon chili-garlic sauce in a large bowl. Whisk in the vegetable oil.
- Add the nectarines, mint, peanuts and 1/4 teaspoon salt to the bowl with the dressing; toss. Divide the chicken and nectarine salad among plates.

LIME-GINGER CHICKEN KABOBS WITH PEANUT SAUCE
These chicken thighs are flavorful, moist, and very easy to make. And when dipped into an Asian-inspired peanut sauce, just wait for the m-m-m-m-m's to begin. I like to serve this with Cucumber Slices with Dill (a recipe on this site) and white rice.

Steps:
- Pat chicken thighs dry with a paper towel, cut into 1 1/2-inch chunks, and sprinkle with salt.
- Stir mayonnaise, lime zest, ginger, salt, and pepper for the marinade in a bowl until smooth. Place chicken in a resealable plastic bag, add marinade, seal, and massage the bag until all the chicken pieces are coated. Place in the refrigerator to marinate for at least 2 hours, or up to overnight.
- Soak 6-inch wooden skewers in a bowl of water for at least 30 minutes.
- Whisk peanut butter, lime juice, soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey, ginger, and sambal oelek together in a bowl. Slowly whisk in small amounts of warm water until dipping sauce reaches the desired consistency; set aside.
- Heat the grill to medium-high and oil the grate.
- Remove chicken from the marinade and thread chicken onto the skewers; discard marinade.
- Place skewers on the hot grill and cook until chicken is cooked through and juices run clear, 10 to 12 minutes, lowering the heat if chicken is browning too fast. Turn skewers as often as necessary for even browning, and to keep the chicken from burning.
- Garnish with chopped cilantro and serve with fresh lime wedges and peanut sauce for dipping.

Steps:
- Slice each chicken thigh into 2 or 3 large chunks, then put in a bowl with the ginger, garlic, chilli powder, half the coriander, lime juice and 1 tbsp of the oil. Stir well, then cover and leave in the fridge to marinate until ready to cook. For the best flavour, do this in the morning or, better still, the night before.
- Peel and quarter the onions, then very finely chop them in a food processor; for a curry you want the onion really fine. Heat the remaining oil in a wok or large frying pan, then add the onion and stir-fry for about 8 mins until soft. Stir in the turmeric and cook for 1 min more, stirring well.
- Tip in the chicken mixture with the marinade and cook over a high heat until the chicken changes colour. Pour in the coconut milk, add the chilli and stock, then cover and simmer for 20 mins until the chicken is tender. Stir in the remaining coriander, then serve with pilau rice, a bowl of mango chutney - we like Geeta's - and some poppadoms or naan bread.

Steps:
- Mix all the ingredients together with a hand held blender or food processor Marinate the chicken for at least 2 hours then grill, BBQ or bake.
Tips:
- Use fresh ingredients: Fresh ginger and lime juice will give your marinade the best flavor. If you don't have fresh ginger, you can use ground ginger, but it won't be as flavorful.
- Don't over-marinate your chicken: Marinating chicken for too long can make it tough. Chicken breasts and thighs can be marinated for up to 24 hours, while wings and drumsticks can be marinated for up to 12 hours.
- Use a shallow dish for marinating: This will allow the marinade to cover the chicken evenly.
- Turn the chicken occasionally: This will help the marinade to penetrate the chicken evenly.
- Discard the marinade after use: Do not reuse marinade that has been in contact with raw chicken.
- Cook the chicken thoroughly: Chicken should be cooked to an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
Conclusion:
This ginger-lime marinade is a delicious and easy way to add flavor to your chicken. It's perfect for grilling, baking, or frying. You can also use it to make a flavorful stir-fry. Experiment with different herbs and spices to create your own unique marinade. The possibilities are endless!
