Grilled Tandoori Chicken Thighs
This recipe for grilled tandoori chicken thighs has just the right blend of spices. The chicken is moist, delicious, and tastes great hot or cold. If using thighs with skin, you can put over direct medium heat for the last few minutes to crisp.
Vegetable Tom Yum Soup
This is a vegetable version of the classic Thai Tom Yum soup. You can find lemongrass, lime leaves, and galangal (a close relative of ginger) at any Asian supermarket. If you can't find the lime leaves, you can add extra lime juice to taste, but do try to find the lime leaves because they make a big difference. It tastes just like my local Thai restaurant!
