Thai Chicken Tacos


Ingredients for Marinade:
1 1/2 lbs chicken thighs
1/4 c lime juice
1/4 c soy sauce
3 Tbs packed brown sugar
2 Tbs oil
1 Tbs siracha or chili sauce
1 Tbs minced garlic
1 Tbs ginger
1/3 c chopped cilantro
1/3 c chopped green onions

Ingredients for Peanut Sauce:
1/3 c creamy peanut butter
2 Tbs packed brown sugar
1 Tbs lime juice
2 Tbs soy sauce
1 clove of garlic, minced
2 tsp ginger
1 tsp siracha or chili sauce
2 Tbs hot water

Ingredients for Serving:
Shredded carrots
Shredded purple cabbage
Diced red peppers
Chopped unsalted peanuts
Cilantro
Warmed tortillas

1. Place chicken in gallon bag and add all marinade ingredients.  Shake so marinade covers chicken completely, then leave in the refrigerator to marinate for 2 hours
2. To make peanut sauce, whisk together peanut sauce ingredients in a medium bowl until smooth
3. Cook chicken in a pan over medium-high heat, making sure to get a char on the skin.  When mostly cooked through, cut into strips or cubes and finish cooking.
4. Serve over tortillas topped with cabbage, carrots, red peppers, peanuts, cilantro, and peanut sauce
