Big Green Egg Thai Green Curry Chicken Skewers
The marinade couldn’t be easier to make for this recipe and is the secret to its bold flavor. Sugar, coconut milk, fish sauce, green curry paste, soy sauce, garlic, ginger, and cilantro go in to this full flavored concoction. Once the ingredients are mixed, cut the chicken thighs in to small chunks (that would easily fit on a skewer) and place the chicken and marinade in a Ziploc bag overnight.
Take the chicken out of the bag and put the chunks on skewers. If you are using wood skewers make sure to soak them first.
Preheat the Big Green Egg top 450° and when ready place the skewers directly on the grill grate over the coals (direct heat method).
Grill the skewers 6 minutes per side or until the instant read thermometer reads 160°. Pull the skewers off and let rest for 5 minutes then serve. Ginger rice and baby bok choi complement the meal!
