6 skinless chicken thighs
6 tablespoons lemon juice
1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated
2 garlic cloves, crushed
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon brown sugar
2 tablespoons honey
2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped (or 2 tsp. dried)
1 green chili pepper, seeded and finely chopped
2 tablespoons vegetable oil

1
Prick the chicken thighs with a fork. Pat dry with paper towels and set aside.
2
In a bowl, mix the lemon juice, ginger, garlic, red pepper, salt, sugar, and honey.
3
Combine the thighs and spice mixture in a plastic zip bag (or a bowl with cover) and marinate in the refrigerator for an hour.
4
Set grill to medium (or fire up the broiler). Add the cilantro and green chili to the chicken, mix, and transfer to a flameproof dish.
5
Pour any remaining marinade over the chicken.
6
Grill (or broil) for about 15-20 minutes, turning and basting the chicken occasionally, until cooked through (the whole juices-run-clear thing).
7
Serve immediately. A garnish of fresh cilantro would be nice.
