Instructions
- Prepare the chicken according to your grill type and your preference. (For me, as I’m intending to grill as a whole, I just transferred the fillets out from the packaging into a large container.)
- Combine all the marinade ingredients in a bowl and mix them well. Pour the sauce over the chicken. Mix evenly to coat the chicken with the sauce. Cover and marinate it for at least 4 hours or overnight in the fridge to deepen the flavor.
- Grease the grill plate and preheat the bbq following your grill manual. Grill the chicken, covered for 5-7 minutes per side, or until the chicken is cooked through. (An inserted thermometer should read 165 degrees F / 74 C). If you have opted, grill some rice cakes and sweet potatoes. Be sure to coat them with some cooking oil before placing them on the grill.
- Serve. (Refer to my serving suggestions in the main post!)
Notes
- 1 Tbsp = 15 ml
