6 servings

Ingredients

⅓ cup chopped fresh cilantro
⅓ cup chopped fresh Thai basil
¼ cup fish sauce
3 green onions, thinly sliced
3 tablespoons canola oil
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice
1 tablespoon grated lime zest
1 tablespoon dark brown sugar
2 teaspoons freshly grated ginger
¾ teaspoon kosher salt
¾ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 pounds skinless, boneless chicken thighs
salt and ground black pepper to taste

Instructions

Step 1
Combine cilantro, Thai basil, fish sauce, green onions, lime juice, lime zest, brown sugar, ginger, kosher salt, and 3/4 teaspoon pepper in a medium-sized bowl.

Step 2
Combine chicken thighs and cilantro mixture in a gallon-sized zip-top bag. Marinate in the refrigerator 8 hours to overnight, turning occasionally.

Step 3
Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.

Step 4
Drain chicken thighs and discard marinade. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Step 5
Add chicken to the preheated grill and cook until no longer pink in the centers, 7 to 10 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of each thigh should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Serve immediately.
