Sweet and Spicy BBQ Sauce

Had some chicken thighs kicking around, and wanted to do something different.  Decided to whip up a home made Thai style BBQ sauce.  I tend to keep a bunch of Thai and Asian ingredients around, so it was pretty simple.  This recipe only makes enough to baste and marinate 4 thighs ( about 2/3 cup, so plan accordingly)

Ingredients:

4 tsp Sirachi Sauce
4 tbs Thai sweet red chili sauce
2 tbs lime juice
4 tsp honey
1 tsp basil flakes
1 tsp garlic powder

Mix ingredients in bowl.  Marinate the chicken for a couple of hours in about 1/2 the sauce.  Grill over indirect heat until chicken is at least 160 degrees by the bone, brushing occasionally with the sauce.  Serve with remaining sauce on the side.
