A delightful twist on grilled chicken, combining sweet and savory flavors for a perfect meal.
In a mixing bowl, combine the soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Mix well.
Ensure the honey is fully dissolved for an even flavor distribution.
Place the chicken breasts in a zip-top bag and pour the marinade over them. Seal the bag and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
For deeper flavor, marinate overnight.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
Clean the grill grates before heating to prevent sticking.
Remove the chicken from the marinade and set the marinade aside. Place the reserved marinade in a saucepan and bring it to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for 5 minutes.
Boiling the marinade ensures it's safe to use as a glaze.
Sprinkle the chicken breasts with salt and place them on the grill. Cook for 5 minutes on one side.
Avoid moving the chicken too much to get nice grill marks.
Flip the chicken breasts, baste with the prepared glaze, and cook for another 5 minutes or until fully cooked.
Use a meat thermometer to ensure the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
Serve the grilled chicken hot, garnished with fresh herbs if desired.
Pair with a side of steamed vegetables or rice for a complete meal.
