Recipe Introduction


My husband is famous for this wonderfully easy grilled chicken. People are usually skeptical about its green color but they always fall in love with its spicy, Asian flavor and tender texture.




List of Ingredients




1 bunch fresh cilantro, with roots
3 cloves garlic, chopped
3 small red hot chili peppers
1 teaspoon curry powder
1 teaspoon ground turmeric
1 tablespoon white sugar
3 tablespoons fish sauce (found in Asian markets)
3 lbs chickens, cut into pieces (we usually use breast tenders)
1 (15.00 ounces) can coconut milk, reserve 1/2 cup


Recipe



1. Trim cilanto root ends.
2. In a blender, combine cilantro bunch, garlic, chile peppers, curry powder, turmeric, sugar, fish sauce, and coconut milk.
3. Blend until a smooth, thick paste.
4. Rub chicken pieces with cilantro paste.
5. Cover and marinate in refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.
6. Put chicken pieces on prepared grill.
7. While grilling, brush liberally with 1/2 cup reserved coconut milk.
8. Grill until browned and tender.

Serves 4-6.
