Marinade

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Make the Marinade

    In a large bowl, combine soy sauce, hoisin sauce, honey, rice vinegar, minced garlic, grated ginger, Chinese five spice powder, and sesame oil. Whisk until well blended.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Chicken

    Add the chicken thighs to the marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight for optimal flavor.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 375°F to 400°F).

  2. 4

    Grill the Chicken

    Remove the chicken from the marinade, allowing excess marinade to drip off. Place the chicken on the grill skin-side down. Grill for about 5-7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F and the skin is crispy and caramelized.

  3. 5

    Garnish and Serve

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