Ingredients
1 cup low-sodium soy sauce
½ cup lightly packed brown sugar
2 tablespoons honey
¼ cup unseasoned rice vinegar
1 tablespoon freshly grated ginger
1 tablespoon finely minced fresh garlic
2 to 3 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs or breasts
Instructions
1. In a small saucepan, combine soy sauce, brown sugar, honey, and rice vinegar. Heat over medium heat, stirring until sugar dissolves. Simmer gently.
2. Remove ½ cup of sauce to refrigerate for later glazing. Let the rest cool, then stir in ginger and garlic.
3. Place chicken in a shallow dish or bag, pour marinade over. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour to 12 hours.
4. Preheat grill to medium-high. Grill thighs for 6-8 minutes per side; breasts for 3-4 minutes. Use a thermometer to ensure chicken reaches 165°F.
5. Brush with reserved sauce during last 1-2 minutes on the grill. Let rest for 5-7 minutes before slicing and serving.
