chicken thighs are the perfect cut for this punchy marinade because their rich meatiness balances the classic trio of Thai flavors: sweet, salty, spicy. The longer you marinate the chicken, the spicier it becomes.
1. Whisk all ingredients except cilantro and chicken in small bowl until blended. Stir in 1/4 cup of the cilantro.
2. Make 3 diagonal 1/2-inch-deep cuts across chicken thighs, making sure to cut through skin and into meat. Place chicken in ziptop bag; add coconut milk mixture. Massage bag to coat chicken. Refrigerate 8 hours or overnight, turning occasionally.
3. Heat oven to 400 degrees. Line large rimmed baking sheet with foil; spray with cooking spray. Remove chicken from marinade, shaking off excess; place on baking sheet. Discard marinade.
4. Bake 25 minutes; brush chicken with pan dripping. Remove excess drippings with spoon or baster. Bake an additional 10 minutes or until chicken is browned and no longer pink in center. Brush with pan dripping; sprinkle with remaining 2 tablespoons cilantro.
