Ingredients
2 lb. chicken thighs, boneless and skinless
½ cup soy sauce
2 mangos
3 garlic cloves
½ teaspoon fresh ginger, grated
2 tablespoons water (or more as needed)
Cilantro for garnish
Instructions
Add chicken to a plastic bag or a large baking dish; set aside.
Make the marinade: Add the soy sauce, mangos, garlic, ginger, and water to a small blender or food processor and pulse until smooth.
Reserve ¼ cup of the sauce, then pour the rest over the chicken. Seal the bag shut and place it in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or up to 8 hours.
To grill: Heat grill to 400°F. Remove the chicken from the bag with tongs, shaking off any excess marinade. Grill the chicken for 6-7 minutes per side.
Once the chicken is done, place it on a serving platter or plate and brush it with the reserved sauce. Sprinkle with chopped cilantro (optional) and enjoy!
