¼ cup low-sodium soy sauce
3 tablespoons fresh lime juice
2 teaspoons finely grated lime zest
2 tablespoons finely minced or grated ginger root
2 medium garlic cloves, minced
1 tablespoon honey
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
¼ cup fresh, chopped cilantro, divided
1 pound boneless, skinless chicken thighs
2 tablespoons finely minced scallions
INSTRUCTIONS
- In a small glass bowl, combine the soy sauce, lime juice, lime zest, ginger, garlic, honey, oil and 2 tablespoons of the cilantro. Remove and reserve 2 tablespoons of the marinade to use for basting when you cook the chicken.
- Place the chicken in a plastic zipper bag and add the marinade. Squeeze the air from the bag and close it. Place the bag of chicken in the refrigerator to marinate for 2 to 4 hours.
- Grill the chicken over medium-high heat for 6 to 8 minutes. Flip and brush the chicken with the reserved marinade. Grill until the chicken is cooked through, 6 to 8 minutes more.
