Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 3 tbsp oil
  • zest of 1 lime
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 1/2 tsp ground coriander
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 1/2 tsp kosher salt
  • 2 tbsp sugar
  • 2 tsp curry powder
  • 1/2 cup coconut milk
  • pinch cayenne
  • 1 small fresh hot chili, such as Thai, Serrano or Jalapeno, minced
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
  • Fresh limes, cut into wedges

Instructions

  1. For the marinade, mix all ingredients except chicken, cilantro, and limes.
  2. Add chicken and marinade to a large bowl or ziploc bag and chill in the refrigerator 2-8 hours.  Remove chicken from marinade and grill (works well in the skillet with just a little oil).
  3. While the chicken is grilling, pour the marinade into a small saucepan and bring to a rolling boil.
  4. Boil continuously for at least 2 minutes, stirring occasionally so it doesn’t burn.
  5. Sprinkle with fresh lime juice and cilantro. Serve with sauce on the side or drizzled over the top.
