Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Grilled Coconut Curry Chicken.
Step 1
Start by grabbing a mixing bowl and combine the creamy coconut milk with fragrant curry powder, zesty lime juice and zest, a drizzle of honey, minced garlic, a pinch of salt, ground coriander, and a dash of white pepper.
Step 2
Don’t forget to add the white parts of the scallions for an extra burst of flavor! Stir everything together until it’s well blended and you can almost smell the deliciousness.
Step 3
Next, pour this vibrant marinade into a 1-gallon resealable plastic bag.
Step 4
Add your chicken cutlets, then squeeze out most of the air before sealing the bag.
Step 5
Give it a gentle massage to ensure every piece of chicken is coated in that mouthwatering marinade.
Step 6
For the best flavor, let the chicken marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or up to 4 hours if you want to take it to the next level.
Step 7
When you’re ready to cook, preheat your outdoor grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate to keep things from sticking.
Step 8
Once the grill is hot, take the chicken cutlets out of the marinade, shaking off any excess, and toss the marinade away.
Step 9
Place the chicken on the grill and let it cook for about 3 to 4 minutes on each side.
Step 10
You’re looking for a lovely golden-brown color and an internal temperature of at least 165°F (74°C) to ensure it’s perfectly cooked.
Step 11
When the chicken is ready, arrange the cutlets on a serving platter and sprinkle them with the reserved green parts of the scallions.
Step 12
For an extra touch, feel free to add some chopped cilantro or parsley.
Step 13
Enjoy your delicious grilled chicken, bursting with flavor and perfect for any occasion!.
