Korean Grilled Chicken
I’ve got another great chicken recipe for you to make on the grill. I made this recipe with chicken thighs to keep the chicken tender and juicy on the inside and crispy on the outside. I love this Korean Grilled Chicken recipe because it’s super simple to make. Just add all of the sauce ingredients to a resealable Ziplock bag, add in the chicken and toss to coat. Marinade the chicken for at least two hours or overnight for maximum flavor. The marinade for this grilled chicken recipe is made of fresh ginger, garlic, low-sodium soy sauce, mirin, brown sugar, sesame oil, and lots of green onions. I also like to add in a bit of Sriracha for a little kick. You can make it as spicy as you like. I like to double the amount in this recipe because I like it extra spicy! Serve this grilled chicken with some fluffy brown rice, roasted broccoli, and/or my Cucumber Avocado Salad!
Ingredients
Chicken Thighs: I love using bone in and skin on chicken thighs in this recipe. The skin gets crispy on the outside and the bone helps it to stay juicy on the inside. This recipe can be made with boneless chicken thighs or breasts. Just shorten the cooking time, and be careful to not overcook or risk drying out the chicken. Ginger: I prefer to use fresh grated ginger however ground ginger can be substituted in a pinch. Garlic: I always have to have garlic! Low-Sodium Soy Sauce: If you do not have low sodium soy sauce you can substitute regular soy sauce with water so it’s not too salty. You can also substitute coconut aminios for a gluten free version! Light Brown Sugar: Adds a nice sweetness to the sauce. Honey can also be substituted. Mirin: Gives the sauce a nice acidity and adds a touch of sweetness to balance out the saltiness. Sesame Oil: A little goes a long way! Sesame oil gives the marinade a nice nutty toasted flavor. Sriracha: This is dded for a little kick. If you don’t want the spice, just omit.
