Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, honey (or low-carb sweetener), peanut butter, rice vinegar, ginger, garlic, cumin, coriander, red pepper flakes (if using), sesame oil, and lime juice until smooth.
  2. Place the chicken thighs in a bowl or zip-top bag, pour the marinade over, and ensure all pieces are coated. Seal and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight.
  3. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat or your oven to 400°F (200°C). For grilling, oil the grates and for roasting, line a baking sheet with foil.
  4. Grill the chicken thighs skin-side down for 6-8 minutes, flipping halfway until the internal temperature is 165°F. For roasting, arrange on the baking sheet and roast for 35-40 minutes.
  5. Let the chicken rest for a few minutes after cooking. Serve warm, garnished with cilantro and sesame seeds.

Notes

For the best flavor, marinate the chicken overnight. Bone-in, skin-on thighs ensure juiciness during cooking. Use a meat thermometer to check for doneness at 165°F.
