In a large mixing bowl, add all ingredients except chicken thighs, and whisk to combine.

Place chicken thighs in the marinade and stir to coat, making sure all pieces are submerged. Cover, then transfer to the fridge to marinate for at least 2 hours.

Next, prepare the dressing. Add all ingredients into a small bowl, then whisk until consistent. Cover, then set aside.

Meanwhile, if using bamboo or wood skewers, soak in water.

When chicken is ready to grill, remove from the fridge, then thread chicken evenly onto the skewers.

Add 1 cup of water to the drip tray and preheat your Kenyon Grill to high heat. Grill chicken for 10-15 minutes, flipping halfway through, until well marked and thermometer inserted in center registers 165°F. Remove from heat, then pair the peanut sauce alongside. Enjoy!
