Instructions
- In a medium bowl whisk together the coconut milk, garlic, brown sugar, salt, ginger, turmeric, cumin, and coriander.
- Using an immersion blender or regular blender, blend marinade ingredients for a few pulses.
- Add cilantro and pulse again a couple of times.
- Write the name of the item on the outside of a gallon sized freezer bag, place in stable container to pour in marinade.
- Separate into two bags if desired with 4 chicken breasts per baggie.
- Pour in half of the marinade (about 1 cup each).
- Squeeze all air out of the baggie and seal.
- If freezing, place flat in freezer until frozen completely.
- If using immediately, allow to marinade for 2 - 24 hours before grilling. Refrigerate during marinating.
- If frozen, when ready to use, remove from freezer and thaw in refrigerator overnight or on counter for 2 hours.
- Heat grill to medium-high heat, brush with oil.
- Remove from marinade and place on grill, cooking for about 6 minutes per side for breasts (2-3 for tenders, 10 minutes or so per side for thighs)
- Basting using leftover marinade, discard any unused marinade or bring to simmer on stovetop for 10 minutes to kill any bacteria and serve over chicken.
- If desired, squeeze a fresh lime and serve.
