Method
 

  1. Set up your Big Green Egg for an indirect cook at 200°C. Add your stainless steel grid.
  2. Add your chicken thighs and roast off, skin side down, to crisp up the skin. If you have the EGGspander system, then you might want to use a half-direct, half-indirect set-up.
  3. While the chicken is roasting, in a bowl, mix together the other non-garnish ingredients to make a baste.
  4. Baste your chicken and cook for 5 minutes before flipping and basting. Keep doing this until your chicken reaches an internal temperature of 80°C.
  5. Serve and garnish with the coriander, sesame seeds and chilli.
