Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 21

For the chicken
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup unseasoned rice vinegar
1/4 cup lime juice
1/4 cup fish sauce
2 tablespoons Sriracha
2 tablespoons finely chopped peeled fresh ginger
1 1/2 pounds skinless, boneless chicken breasts or thighs, cut into 1 1/2-inch-wide strips
Vegetable oil, for the grill
For the peanut dipping sauce
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 bunch scallions, finely chopped, including some of the green part
3 tablespoons chunky peanut butter, preferably all-natural and sugar-free
3 tablespoons hoisin sauce
1 tablespoon sriracha, or to taste
1/4 cup lime juice
1/3 to 1/2 cup water
To serve
Cooked rice
Sliced cucumbers
Fresh pungent greens such as Thai basil or arugula

Steps:

  • Soak the bamboo skewers: If using bamboo skewers, soak them in warm water for 30 minutes.
  • Marinate the chicken: In a bowl large enough to hold the chicken, stir together the brown sugar, vinegar, lime juice, fish sauce, sriracha, and ginger. Add the chicken strips and toss to coat. Cover and marinate for at least 1 hour, or up to overnight. You can also marinate them in a resealable gallon-sized plastic bag to save space in the fridge, if you prefer.
  • Prepare the grill: For charcoal grills: Light one chimney full of coals and when they are covered with ash, spread them out evenly. Allow the grill grates to heat for 5 minutes. With a pair of tongs, dip a folded square of paper towel in oil and generously oil the grates. For a gas grill: Heat the grill on high heat for about 20 minutes. With a pair of tongs, dip a folded square of paper towel in oil and generously oil the grates.
