Instructions

Whisk together the coconut milk, fish sauce, brown sugar, garlic, lime juice, and soy sauce in a bowl.
Place chicken in a zip-top bag and pour marinade over it. Seal and marinate in the fridge for at least 1 hour, or overnight for deeper flavor.
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
Remove chicken from marinade, letting excess drip off. Discard used marinade.
Place chicken on the grill. Cook for about 6-7 minutes per side or until fully cooked (internal temperature should reach 165°F).
Once done, let the chicken rest for a few minutes before slicing.

Notes

For substitutions, chicken breasts can be used instead of thighs. Use full-fat coconut milk for extra creaminess.
