Equipment

Ingredients
  

Main ingredients

  • 8 to 10 boneless skinless chicken thighs
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon pepper
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce low sodium

Instructions

  • Add the chicken thighs to a mixing bowl and toss with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.
  • Once coated, add the soy sauce, rice vinegar, and ½ cup of sweet chili sauce. Toss well to combine and set aside in the fridge to marinate for 30 minutes to an hour.
  • Heat the grill to 400F.
  • Place the chicken thighs onto the grill, smooth side down. Grill the chicken thighs on direct heat for 3 minutes, depending on their size. Keep the grill lid closed.
  • Open the lid and flip the chicken thighs. Brush the chicken thighs generously with the sweet Thai chili sauce and close the lid, letting them cook for 3 minutes. Open the lid and flip the chicken thighs again. Brush the other side, and cook for another minute with the lid closed.
  • Flip the chicken one last time to let the just-brushed side sear for a minute. Remove the chicken from the grill and rest for at least five minutes before serving. If possible, cover with foil.
