Ingredients

1/2 cup reduced sodium soy sauce
1/4 cup honey
2 teaspoons sesame oil
2 garlic cloves crushed
2 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs

Instructions

Place the soy sauce, honey, sesame oil, and garlic in a ziplock bag and mix to combine. Add the chicken and seal the bag. Turn it over a few times to coat the chicken.
1/2 cup reduced sodium soy sauce, 1/4 cup honey, 2 teaspoons sesame oil, 2 garlic cloves, 2 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs
Refrigerate the chicken for at least 2 hours, up to overnight.
When ready to cook, heat a grill over medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade, discarding the marinade. Grill until the chicken is cooked through, about 5-7 minutes per side.
Serve topped with chopped parsley or green onions, if desired.

Notes

Boneless, skinless chicken breasts can be used instead of thighs. They will take about 8-9 minutes per side.

An instant read thermometer is your best friend when grilling chicken. Especially if you are grilling breasts. Thighs tend to be a little more forgiving and are harder to overcook.
