Grilled Spiced Coconut Chicken (Ayam Percik Bakar)

Grilled Spiced Coconut Chicken, also known as Ayam Percik Bakar, is a traditional Malaysian favorite that combines the deep flavors of grilled chicken with a creamy, aromatic coconut-based sauce. The chicken is marinated in a blend of local spices, grilled over an open flame for a smoky finish, and then generously coated with the signature percik sauce—made from coconut milk, lemongrass, garlic, ginger, chili, and other fragrant ingredients.

At Like Father Like Daughter Enterprise, we prepare our Ayam Percik Bakar fresh daily, using quality chicken and a family recipe perfected over time. The result is a tender, juicy dish packed with authentic Malay flavors—ideal for lunch, dinner, or festive occasions. It's a comforting, satisfying meal that reflects the warmth and richness of traditional Malaysian cooking.

Our Ayam Percik Bakar starts with chicken pieces marinated for hours in a special blend of herbs and spices to lock in flavor. The chicken is then grilled until perfectly charred on the outside while remaining moist and tender inside. Once cooked, it's generously smothered in our homemade percik sauce—thick, creamy, and bursting with layers of spice, coconut aroma, and just the right amount of heat.

This dish is a must-try for fans of traditional grilled food with a twist. The smoky notes from the grill, combined with the sweet and spicy coconut sauce, make every bite memorable. Served with rice, cucumber, or as part of a festive platter, our Grilled Spiced Coconut Chicken offers a taste of authentic Malay heritage, crafted with care and full of heart.
