Chicken Marinade
Method
Grilling Instructions
Prepare the Marinade
In a bowl, whisk together soy sauce, brown sugar, honey, minced garlic, grated ginger, red chili flakes, black pepper, lime juice, and vegetable oil until well combined.
Marinate the Chicken
Place the chicken breasts in a resealable plastic bag or shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring they are well coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, ideally overnight for maximum flavor.
Preheat the Grill
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
Grill the Chicken
Remove the chicken from the marinade and let excess marinade drip off. Place the chicken on the grill and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).
Rest and Serve
Once cooked, remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Serve with your choice of sides.
