Thai BBQ Chicken

By Joe Sitthiosoth
Finally, it is summer here. This is the best time of the year after long winter blues for 6 months. What are people going to do on a warm sunny day? Firstly, they are going to the beach. Secondly, they are going to have a barbecue party with friends or family member in their own backyard. Last Sunday when I walked back home, I saw my neighbor having a BBQ party at home with family and friends. They looked so happy. I was so happy too (even they didn't ask me to join them.) I was so happy because the smell of their barbecue reminded me of my favorite Thai food. That is Thai BBQ Chicken which is our menu today.
Thai BBQ Chicken is one of the most popular Thai food. You can find this kind of food in every corner of the street , no matter where you live in Thailand. Thai BBQ Chicken is very tasty and easy to cook as well. Usually, Thai people will eat BBQ Chicken with sticky rice and sweet chilie sauce. However, eating Thai BBQ Chicken alone is good enough for everyone. I remember the first time I cooked Thai BBQ Chicken to my Canadian friends was last summer. They were so excited to try my food. Many of them told me that this was their first time to have a very delicious and juicy BBQ chicken. I knew what they meant because mostly BBQ food they usually have are hotdogs, burgers and steaks. The taste of these foods cannot compete with Thai BBQ Chicken at all. Okay, let's get started now.
Ingredients
1 piece of chicken (400-450 grams) you can use chicken drumstick if you want.
4 cloves of garlic, finely chopped
1 teaspoon of pepper
1 teaspoon of light soy sauce
1/2 tablespoon of oyster sauce
1 teaspoon of curry powder
Preparation
1. Put all ingredients on the chicken and rub it all over the chicken accordingly
2. Leave it for 1 hour (if you have time you can leave it overnight in the fridge)
3. Grill the chicken with medium heat both sides (be careful, do not overcooked or let it burn)
Now you are done. Enjoy your food !! I have to go to the beach with Nicole now.
See you next time.
