Instructions

Prepare the Marinade:

  1. Whisk together marinade ingredients in a large measuring cup or bowl.
  2. Place chicken in a large dish or in a zip-top plastic bag.
  3. Set aside ¼ cup of marinade for basting. Pour the rest of the marinade over the chicken and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes (or up to 24 hours).

GRILL THE CHICKEN:

  1. When ready to grill, remove chicken from the marinade.
  2. Discard marinade from the dish.
  3. Heat a grill pan or outdoor grill over medium-high heat. Coat grill or pan with about a teaspoon of oil so that the chicken doesn’t stick. Grill chicken on each side until golden, crispy and cooked through (about 5 minutes per side, or until meat reaches an internal temperature of 160 degrees F). Use the reserved ¼ cup of marinade to baste the chicken once or twice while it cooks on the grill.
  4. Allow meat to rest for about 5 minutes before slicing and serving over rice and garnishing with sliced green onions.

Notes

  • *You can substitute with chicken thighs or chicken wings, if you prefer.
  • Serving a larger group? If you're feeding more than 3 or 4 people, I would suggest doubling the marinade ingredients and grilling about 2 - 2 1/2 lbs. of chicken.
