Sriracha Chicken Lettuce Wraps

Korean to the core.

Steps

For the marinade: combine all ingredients and whisk together.
Pour over the chicken thighs in a large ziplock bag and refrigerate at least 1 hour or up to overnight.
Heat the grill.
Oil the grill grates.
When the grill is ready , place on the chicken thighs , keeping an even layer of marinade , if possible , which will provide caramelization.
Grill about 2 minutes , then turn 45 degrees to get grill marks.
Grill another 2 min before flipping , then repeat on the other side.
This should take about 8 minutes and the thighs should be bare char marks and perfectly cooked through on the inside.
About 3 minutes before the thighs are finshed , place the prepared green onions on the grill.
Allow the thighs to rest for about 10 minutes then slice against the grain.
To build a wrap , open a lettuce leaf.
Place in a bit of chicken , fresh cilantro , grilled green onions and top it off with a generous amount of sriracha.
