Oooh these look super tasty. Chicken is a regular meal in our house so I’m always looking for new ways to cook it. This would be great with a variety of sides too. Hopefully it’s not too spicy for the kids but I might make some with half the chilli sauce to make sure.

A nice marinade. I think I’d go with the sweet chilli sauce though.

Love this recipe – thanks for sharing. Thighs of chicken are the tastiest and less dry than the breast meat.

This sounds really good. Not sure about the coriander though haha and I would use breast as I’m not a fan of thigh meat.

Does this recipe taste as good without the chilli? My children are not fans of chilli.

Great timing was thinking of what to use the chicken breast in the fridge for. Might try out the coconut rice too. Thank you.
