Grilled Five Spice Chicken

I am always looking for different ways to prepare chicken.  This is one worth posting.   I found it on the Allrecipe.com site.


Ingredients
Chicken thighs  (I used one large pack)
1/2 lime, juiced
1 tablespoon fish sauce
3 cloves garlic, crushed
1 tablespoon seasoned rice vinegar
1 tablespoon Chinese five-spice powder
2 teaspoons sambal oelek (hot chili paste)
2 teaspoons grated fresh ginger
1 teaspoon soy sauce

1/3 cup seasoned rice vinegar
1/2 lime, juiced
1 teaspoon fish sauce
1 teaspoon sambal oelek

Directions
Whisk together the juice of 1/2 lime, 1 tablespoon fish sauce, garlic, 1 tablespoon rice vinegar, Chinese five-spice powder, 2 teaspoons hot chile paste, ginger and soy sauce in a bowl.  Add chicken, coat evenly with the marinade.  Marinate in refrigerator for 6 hours.

Whisk together the 1/3 cup rice vinegar, juice of 1/2 lime, 1 teaspoon fish sauce, and 1 teaspoon hot chile paste in a small bowl.  Set aside.

Grill chicken over medium-high heat on a lightly oiled grill.  Brush frequently with the sauce prepared earlier.  When chicken is done, drizzle whatever sauce is left over the chicken and serve.
