Sweet and Spicy Grilled Chicken (Ayam Bakar Pedas Manis)

Ingredients:

  • 4 chicken thighs
  • 1 tablespoon ground coriander
  • 1 cup thick coconut milk
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 tablespoon palm sugar
  • 1 tablespoon tamarind water
  • 10 tablespoons sweet soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon fine salt

For the Spice Paste:

  • 8 shallots
  • 5 cloves garlic
  • 3 roasted candlenuts
  • 15 red chilies

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Chicken:

    • Clean the chicken thighs thoroughly. Rub them with the spice paste, ensuring an even coating. Let the chicken marinate for about 15-20 minutes to absorb the flavors.
  2. Cook the Chicken:

    • Heat a small amount of cooking oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the marinated chicken thighs.
    • Sauté the chicken until the aroma of the spices is released, then add the remaining ingredients except the coconut milk. Stir to combine.
  3. Simmer and Thicken:

    • Once the chicken starts to become tender, pour in the coconut milk. Continue cooking until the sauce thickens and the chicken is fully cooked. Turn off the heat.
  4. Grill the Chicken:

    • The chicken is now ready to be grilled. Preheat your grill and cook the chicken until it develops a crispy, charred exterior.
  5. Serve:

    • Enjoy your Sweet and Spicy Grilled Chicken hot off the grill, perfect for a flavorful and satisfying meal.

This recipe combines a rich blend of spices with sweet and tangy elements, creating a dish that’s both complex and irresistibly delicious.
