Hawaiin Grilled Chicken with Lime Coconut Rice

3 pounds of boneless skinless chicken thighs
2 cups soy sauce  (low sodium, the best is Aloha Shoyu)
2 cups water
1 1/2 cups brown sugar
1 bunch of green onions, chopped
1/4 cup of a white onion, chopped
1/2 teaspoon minced garlic
1 teaspoon of sesame oil
1 (13.5 ounce) can of coconut milk

Trim chicken thighs of any visible fat and bone fragments. Mix all ingredients (minus the chicken) in a large bowl. Add chicken and marinate for at least 4 hours or overnight to make sure the flavor gets infused.

Grill chicken at a low heat so that the marinade does not burn for 5-7 minutes per side or until done.

Tip: This recipe fed 4 adults and 3 kids with a few leftovers. I buy the thighs at Costco. They come in a six pack. For this recipe use 3 packages or double the recipe if you want to use all six packages.
