Thai Barbecued Chicken

This was terrific, quick, and fairly easy to do (I'm not good at planning ahead for long marinating, but managed a 24 hour soak this time) Didn't have fish sauce so used low sodium soy sauce. Served with thin spaghetti dressed with a packaged pad thai sauce and a salad of spinach, arugula and orange segments. I used leg quarters (drumstick+thigh) and made enough to have two leftover for lunch. Co-workers both days were envious at the smells wafting from the microwave. -
Made this intensely-flavored BBQ with chicken breasts. Marinated 4 hours and that was plenty for grilling.
