Hawaiian Grilled Chicken + Coconut Milk Rice (or Crock Pot)

Hawaiian Grilled Chicken (Inspired by this recipe.)

Notes: The original recipe calls for marinating and grilling, but I opted to do everything in the crock pot. I also halved the recipe when I made it. It's the full one below. It was delicious!

3 lbs. boneliness skinless chicken thighs
2 c. soy sauce (use low sodium soy sauce)
2 c. water
1 1/2 c. brown sugar
1 bunch of green onions, chopped (reserve some for garnish) (I didn't actually have these so I left them off.)
1/4 c. white onion, chopped
1/2 tsp minced garlic
1 tsp sesame oil (I left this out -- mostly because I forgot.)
1 can coconut milk (You'll need more for the rice.)

Mix soy sauce, water, brown sugar, onions, garlic, oil and 1 can of coconut milk in a crock pot. Add chicken and cook on high for 6 hours.

To make coconut rice, replace half of the water with coconut milk. I do 1 c. white rice, 1 c. water, 1 c. coconut milk and cook as directed.

To grill, you marinade in the sauce for 8 hours and then grill for 5-7 mins on each side.
