Thai Sweet Chile Grilled Chicken


Ingredients:
1 ½ pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs, but into 2 inch pieces
1 Tablespoon canola oil
Salt and pepper to taste

½ cup Thai Sweet Chile Sauce (recommended: Trader Joe’s)
¼ cup ketchup
1 teaspoon low sodium soy sauce
1 Tablespoon sesame seeds

Directions: Preheat grill to medium heat. Toss chicken pieces in canola oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper.

In a small mixing bowl, combine the Chile sauce, ketchup, soy and sesame.

Place chicken pieces on the grill and cook for 7 minutes per side. You can best judge the right temp and time on the chicken when it is white and opaque, with no pink. Brush one side with sauce and then flip. Baste the other side with sauce and cook five more minutes. Repeat until the chicken has been on the grill about 25 minutes and registers at least 165 degrees F (when you take its temp with an instant read thermometer) and the sauce is just nicely charred on the edges.
