Ping gai is Laotian for grilled chicken, but according to Chef John, this recipe originated from the Queen Mother Cafe in Toronto, so North-Americanization is possible: "But rest assured, this is at least twice as good as your average grilled chicken, North American or otherwise. Generous amounts of freshly ground pepper and chopped cilantro are the main players in the marinade, while a sweet, garlicky dipping sauce is the perfect accompaniment."
