How to Make Asian Grilled Chicken

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup soy sauce, 2 tablespoons honey, 2 tablespoons rice vinegar, 1 tablespoon sesame oil, 1 tablespoon grated ginger, 2 cloves minced garlic, and 1 teaspoon ground red pepper flakes (optional).
  2. Add 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts to the marinade, ensuring they are fully coated.
  3. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably 4-6 hours, for maximum flavor.
  4. Preheat grill to medium-high heat. Remove chicken from marinade, discarding the marinade.
  5. Grill chicken for 5-7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
  6. Alternatively, bake chicken in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 25-30 minutes, or until cooked through.
  7. In a small saucepan, bring the reserved marinade to a boil over medium heat.
  8. Reduce heat and simmer for 3 minutes, or until slightly thickened. (Optional: Strain the marinade before simmering to remove solids.)
  9. Serve the grilled chicken drizzled with the reduced marinade. Garnish with chopped cilantro and sesame seeds, if desired.
