Steps:

• Bring a pot of water to a boil. Meanwhile, heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season the chicken on both sides with salt and pepper. Add skin-side down to the skillet and cook until dark brown and crisp, about 8 minutes; flip and brown the other side, 2 minutes. Remove to a plate and wipe out the skillet.
• Off the heat, add 2 tablespoons brown sugar to the skillet and sprinkle the fish sauce over the sugar. Return the skillet to medium heat, stir and bring to a simmer. Add the coconut milk and 1 teaspoon vinegar; stir to combine. Return the chicken skin-side up to the skillet and gently simmer in the sauce, turning occasionally, until cooked through, about 25 minutes. Add a splash of water occasionally if the sauce gets too thick.
• Meanwhile, halve the cucumber lengthwise and scoop out the seeds. Cut the cucumber and carrot into thin matchsticks. Toss with the remaining 2 tablespoons vinegar, 1 teaspoon brown sugar and 3/4 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl.

Steps:

• For Chicken:.
• Rinse chicken and pat dry. In a large bowl, mix coconut milk, ginger, pepper, and hot chili flakes. Add chicken and mix; cover airtight and chill at least 1 hour or up to 1 day.
• Prepare Glaze.
• (Start rice when you start the grill or the broiler).
• Lift chicken from bowl, reserving marinade; pull thighs open and lay flat on a lightly oiled barbecue grill over a solid bed of hot coals or high heat on a gas grill; close lid on gas grill. Cook, turning thighs as needed to brown on both sides, until meat is no longer pink in center of thickest part (cut to test), 10 to 12 minutes, basting frequently with remaining marinade (use it all) until 2 minutes before chicken is done.
• Transfer thighs to a warm platter and pour the chili glaze evenly over meat; garnish platter with green onions.
• For Glaze:.
• In a 2- to 3-quart pan, combine ¾ cup rice vinegar, ½ cup sugar, 3 tbsp soy sauce, and 1 tsp hot chili flakes. Bring to a boil over high heat and cook, stirring often, until mixture is reduced to ½ cup, 8 to 10 minutes. Use hot. If making glaze up to 1 week ahead, cover and chill; reheat before serving.
• For Rice:.
• Bring coconut milk (reserve 2 tablespoons), water, garlic, and salt to a boil. Add rice. Simmer uncovered for 20 minutes. When rice is done, stir in reserved coconut milk, pineapple and basil.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375 degrees. Rub chicken with 1 tablespoon of oil, and season with 1 teaspoon of salt and ¼ teaspoon of pepper.
• In a large Dutch oven, heat 2 tablespoons of the oil over medium. Working in two batches, brown chicken, turning halfway, until no longer pink, around 5 minutes per batch. Transfer to a plate.
• Add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil, the ginger and the garlic to the empty pot, and stir until fragrant, 30 seconds. Add rice and stir until evenly coated in the oil. Add broth, coconut milk, bell pepper, cashews, scallions and the remaining 1 teaspoon salt and ¼ teaspoon pepper. Stir to lift up any browned bits on the bottom of the pot. Arrange chicken on top, add any accumulated juices from the plate and bring to a boil over high.
• Cover and bake until all of the liquid is absorbed, rice is tender and chicken is cooked through, 25 minutes. Scatter cilantro over the chicken and rice, then divide among bowls. Serve with hot sauce.
