Korean Grilled Chicken

Author Steve Rankin adapted from Bobby Flay

Ingredients

  • 1 cup soy sauce
  • 3 tbsp rice wine vinegar
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 1 tbsp heaping, Korean chili paste
  • 2 tbsp grated fresh ginger
  • 6 cloves chopped fresh garlic
  • 1 green onion thinly sliced
  • 2 tsp toasted sesame oil
  • Fresh ground black pepper
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 1/2 tsp toasted sesame seeds optional

Instructions

  1. Whisk together the soy, vinegar, honey, chili paste, ginger and garlic in a bowl and divide the mixture in half. Add 1 half to a large baking dish, then add the chicken, turning to coat. Cover and let the meat marinate in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or up to 8 hours. Add the green onions, sesame oil, and black pepper to the remaining half of the mixture. Reserve it as a dipping sauce for the finished chicken.

    Light a grill, making sure to include a zone of indirect heat.

    Remove the chicken from the marinade and grill it over indirect heat until done. About 8-10 minutes per side depending on thickness.

    Remove the chicken and let it rest. Cut the chicken into strips.

    Serve with the dipping sauce.
