Ingredients
- 2-3 pounds chicken cut in half
Honey Sesame Marinade
- 1 cup chicken stock
- 1/2 cup soy sauce
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
Honey Sesame Sauce
- 3 tablespoons sesame oil
- 2 cloves garlic sliced
- 1/3 teaspoon ground ginger or 1 tsp fresh minced ginger
- 1 green onion diced
- 2 tablespoons honey or to taste
- 1 teaspoon salt or to taste
Instructions
- Combine the ingredients for the sesame marinade. Pierce chicken with a fork in a few places, then place the chicken in a large container, pour the marinade over the top. Refrigerate for a couple of hours or all day.
- Pre-heat your barbeque to 350 degrees.
- Place the chicken on the top grill (less flare ups that will char the chicken) or place on one side of the BBQ and leave the element off underneath the chicken. (the other two elements will be enough heat). Direct flames under the chicken can flare up and burn it.
- Cook the chicken until the chicken reaches 185°F when an instant read thermometer is placed into the thigh meat ( not touching the bone.)
- Fifteen minutes before removing the chicken from the BBQ, place all of the ingredients for the sesame glaze into a small saucepan. Fry until the garlic is browned.
- Remove the skillet from the heat and brush the glaze over the chicken several times during the last 15 minutes of cooking.
- Remove the chicken from the BBQ and serve!
Oven Baked
- Place the marinaded chicken onto a baking sheet.
- Bake in a 350 °F oven until the chicken reaches 185°F when an instant read thermometer is placed into the thigh meat ( not touching the bone.)
- Fifteen minutes before removing the chicken from the oven place all of the ingredients for the sesame glaze into a small saucepan. Fry until the garlic is browned.
- Brush the glaze over the chicken several times during the last 15 minutes of cooking.
Notes
- The calculator calculates ALL of the sauce,which you do not eat, so the nutritional values are incorrect on this.
