I have a weakness for Indonesian grilled chicken (or Ayam Bakar as you will often find on Indonesian menus) - the char and smokiness from the caramelized chicken skin, the sweet aromatic spices, the distinctive taste of kecap manis (sweet soy sauce) combined with the heat from the savoury sambal belacan, all complemented with a mound of steamed white rice. Cook the honey, soy sauce, garlic, and ginger root in a small saucepan over low heat until the honey is melted. Add the limes to the foil and grill the chicken until the juices run clear when an inner thigh is.
