Marinate & Grill the Chicken: In a bowl, mix soy sauce, fish sauce, brown sugar, garlic, ginger, lime juice, chili flakes, and oil. Marinate chicken for at least 30 minutes (up to overnight). Grill on medium-high heat for 5–7 minutes per side until charred and cooked through. Let it rest before slicing. 2. Cook the Jasmine Rice: Rinse the rice under cold water until clear. Combine rice, water, and salt in a saucepan. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer 15 minutes. Let it sit covered for 5 minutes before fluffing. 3. Make the Papaya Salad: In a mortar and pestle (or mixing bowl), pound garlic and chili. Add sugar, fish sauce, and lime juice. Mix well. Add papaya, carrot, tomatoes, and green beans. Toss to combine. Sprinkle with crushed peanuts before serving. 🥢 To Serve: Plate a mound of jasmine rice, top with sliced grilled chicken, and serve with a generous helping of the papaya salad on the side. Garnish with lime wedges and fresh cilantro if desired. 💡 Pro Tip: No green papaya? You can sub with shredded green mango or even cabbage or zucchini for a fun twist! Fresh, bold, and spicy-sweet — this dish is pure Thai street food goodness in your own kitchen. 🇹🇭🔥
