Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Asian Grilled Chicken.
Step 1
Start by gathering all the essential ingredients for this delicious dish.
Step 2
In a small microwave-safe bowl, mix together soy sauce, honey, sesame oil, crushed garlic, and fresh ginger slices.
Step 3
Microwave the blend on medium power for one minute, then give it a good stir.
Step 4
Heat it again for another 30 seconds, watching closely to avoid boiling.
Step 5
Next, place the chicken breasts in a shallow dish and pour the flavorful soy sauce mixture over them, allowing the chicken to marinate for 15 minutes to soak up all those wonderful flavors.
Step 6
While the chicken is marinating, preheat your outdoor grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate to prevent sticking.
Step 7
Once the grill is ready, remove the chicken from the marinade and transfer the leftover marinade to a small saucepan.
Step 8
Bring this mixture to a boil, then lower the heat and let it simmer until it thickens, which should take about a minute.
Step 9
This will be your basting sauce.
Step 10
Now, it’s time to grill! Place the chicken on the preheated grill, basting frequently with the reserved marinade.
Step 11
Cook the chicken until it’s beautifully golden brown on all sides and no longer pink in the center, which should take about 6 to 8 minutes per side.
Step 12
To ensure perfect doneness, use an instant-read meat thermometer to check that the thickest part of the chicken reaches at least 160°F (70°C).
Step 13
Enjoy the tantalizing aroma and the juicy, flavorful chicken that’s sure to impress!.
