This is the best sauce for grilled chicken thighs, breasts, legs, or any meat you’ve got hot off the grill. It takes just a few minutes and four ingredients, with big, bold flavors you don’t want to miss!
🍚 Ingredient tips & substitutes
- Fish sauce Adds saltiness and umami. Choose a good-quality brand like Megachef.
- Thai tamarind paste Thai-style tamarind is thicker and more tangy than Indian tamarind concentrate.
- Sugar I used natural cane sugar, but white or brown sugar works too.
- Red pepper flakes Adjust the amount to your taste.
