Instructions

In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, rice wine, garlic, ginger and sriracha.
Place the chicken in a dish, bowl or ziplock bag. Pour the marinade over the chicken and toss to coat.
Cover the dish or bowl with plastic wrap or seal the bag. Transfer to the refrigerator and marinate for a at least 1 hour and up to overnight.
Grill, bake, broil or air-fry the chicken. Discard the marinade or make it into a sauce as directed in Grilled Honey Soy Chicken.

Notes

Note 1: If you can't find sriracha, substitute it with sambal oelek or a 3-to-1 mixture of ketchup to Frank’s Red Hot sauce (seriously!)
Note 2: The chicken is not included in the nutritional information.
