A delightful grilled chicken recipe with a sweet and savory marinade.
Combine the honey, soy sauce, ginger, garlic, rice vinegar, and black pepper in a mixing bowl.
Mix thoroughly to ensure the flavors are well combined.
Place the chicken breasts in a resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish.
Using a resealable bag helps the marinade coat the chicken evenly.
Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring all pieces are well coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
Turn the chicken occasionally to ensure even marination.
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
Ensure the grill is clean and lightly oiled to prevent sticking.
Grill the chicken for 5-7 minutes on each side, basting with the marinade during the first few minutes.
Use a meat thermometer to check that the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
Serve the grilled chicken hot with your choice of sides.
Garnish with chopped green onions or sesame seeds for added flavor and presentation.
