Grilled Asian Chicken

Ingredients

• 0.25 cups soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons honey
• 4 teaspoons sesame oil
• 2 cloves garlic , crushed
• 3 slices fresh ginger root
• 4 skinless , boneless chicken breast halves

Instructions

1. 1

   Gather all ingredients.

2. 2

   Combine soy sauce, honey, sesame oil, garlic, and ginger in a small microwave-safe bowl; heat in the microwave on medium power for 1 minute, then stir. Heat again for 30 seconds, watching closely to prevent boiling.

3. 3

   Place chicken breasts in a shallow dish. Pour soy sauce mixture over top and set aside to marinate for 15 minutes.

4. 4

   Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate. Meanwhile, remove chicken from marinade; transfer marinade into a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer until thick, about 1 minute. Set aside for basting.

5. 5

   Cook chicken on the preheated grill, basting frequently with reserved marinade, until golden brown on all sides and chicken is no longer pink in the center, about 6 to 8 minutes per side. An instant-read meat thermometer inserted into the thickest piece should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).
