Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups peach preserves
- ¼ cup low-sodium soy sauce
- ⅓ cup Chili garlic sauce or to taste
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice or Apple Cider Vinegar
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt or to taste
- 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper or to taste
- about 2.50 to 3 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts I used 4 medium sized breasts
- fresh cilantro optional for garnishing
- peppers optional for garnishing (serrano, jalapeno, habanero, etc.)
Instructions
- To a medium bowl, add the peach preserves, soy sauce, chili garlic sauce, olive oil, lemon juice, salt, pepper and whisk to combine; set aside.
- To a large ziptop plastic bag, add the chicken and about three-quarters of the marinade. Seal bag and squish the contents around so chicken is evenly coated. Place bag in the fridge to marinate for at least 1 hour (up to overnight is fine if you can plan ahead). Set aside the remaining unused marinade to brush on chicken while it cooks; refrigerate it if you’re marinating overnight or for longer than an hour or so.
- Preheat grill to medium-high heat. Add the chicken and grill for about 10 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through; flip intermittently to ensure even cooking. Discard the bag with the marinade the chicken was. marinating in.
- Brush the reserved marinade on the chicken intermittently while it cooks.
- Optionally garnish chicken with cilantro, peppers, and serve immediately. Chicken is best fresh but will keep airtight in the fridge for up to 5 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
Notes
- Recipe adapted from my Sweet Chili Grilled Chicken.
- Nutrition Stats - Because you are discarding the larger portion of marinade after you remove the chicken from the bag with it and place the chicken on the grill, you are obviously not consuming every last drop. However, the stats take into account that you would be since it's a computer generated estimate and cannot distinguish that point. Therefore, the stats (especially for sugar and sodium) are skewing higher than they are in reality.
