Coconut milk makes a fantastic marinade, tenderising and infusing the chicken with rich flavour.

The added bonus is that the marinade makes a fabulous sauce!

Try grilling this Coconut Marinated Chicken or cook it on the stove, your choice!

This is based on a recipe by Bobby Flay, one of my grilling idols.

His shows started airing in Australia a few years ago and I was hooked.

Because he always seems to be squinting!!

I think he is incredibly talented at bringing together unique flavours with familiar ingredients.

But as for this coconut marinated chicken I am not actually sure whether he had it on his show.

I got it from his book,Bobby Flays Barbecue Addiction.

He makes this with pork tenderloin and has a relish to accompany it.

But the flavour was so awesome that I decided to give it a go with chicken and scored!

Its made using the excess marinade but dont worry, its simmered rapidly to make it safe for consumption.

The chicken is sensational as it is, but honestly, the sauce makes this.

I do hope you consider giving this a go!
