Marinade

Method

Marinade Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a medium bowl, combine soy sauce, brown sugar, rice vinegar, grated ginger, minced garlic, and sesame oil. Whisk until the sugar is dissolved and the ingredients are well mixed.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Chicken

    Place the chicken thighs in a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring all pieces are well coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or overnight for best flavor.

Grilling

  1. 3

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F or 200°C).

  2. 4

    Grill the Chicken

    Remove the chicken from the marinade (discard the marinade) and place the chicken on the grill. Grill for 6-7 minutes on one side, then flip and grill for an additional 5-6 minutes or until the chicken is fully cooked (internal temperature should reach 165°F or 75°C).

  3. 5

    Add Garnishes

    Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes. Slice the chicken and garnish with chopped green onions and toasted sesame seeds before serving.
