RECIPE OF THE WEEK!

KOREAN GRILLED CHICKEN - Pair it with a green salad and some brown rice and you are good to go!

 
  • 1 lb. boneless skinless chicken breasts (I used boneless skinless thighs.)
  • 1/4 cup low sodium soy sauce
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped yellow onion
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1 teaspoon grated ginger
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 2 garlic cloves, crushed
  • 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon sesame seeds
  • 2 scallions, thinly sliced (white and green parts)

-Pound the chicken thin (I chose not to). Put the chicken in a large Ziploc bag.

-In a medium size bowl, combine the soy sauce, applesauce, onion, sesame oil, ginger, brown sugar, garlic, red pepper flakes (if using) and sesame seeds. Remove 1/4 cup of marinade and set aside.

-Pour remaining marinade in Ziploc with the chicken. Toss to coat chicken.

-Refrigerate for a least an hour. (I prepared it and let it sit in fridge for about 4-5 hours).

-Over medium high heat, grill the chicken until it no longer sticks to the grill (2-3 minutes).  Turn chicken over and spoon reserved marinade over each piece and grill an additional 2-3 minutes.
