Thai BBQ chicken
Updated: May 20, 2020
This is probably the most popular street food in Thailand. It is a winning combo of sweet, salty and herby, which explodes to an intensely appetising flavour and flagrant once it hits the flame. It is not a dish achieved in a rush. Check the weather forecast, marinade overnight and grill!
