Ingredients
Scale
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 1 tbsp sesame oil
- 2 tbsp honey or brown sugar
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tbsp fresh ginger, grated
- 1 tsp red pepper flakes (adjust for spice)
- 2 green onions, chopped (for garnish)
- Sesame seeds (for garnish)
Instructions
- Whisk together soy sauce, sesame oil, honey/brown sugar, garlic, ginger, and red pepper flakes to make the marinade.
- Place chicken in a zip-top bag or shallow dish. Pour marinade over chicken, seal or cover, and refrigerate at least 30 minutes or up to overnight.
- Preheat grill to medium-high or skillet over medium with a little oil.
- Remove chicken from marinade, letting excess drip off. Cook 6–8 minutes per side until internal temp reaches 165°F (75°C).
- Remove chicken, let rest 5 minutes, then slice against the grain.
- Garnish with green onions and sesame seeds. Serve immediately.
Notes
- Marinating overnight intensifies flavor.
- Ensure chicken reaches 165°F for safe consumption.
