Sesame-Ginger Chicken

I am not a grill failure.  Although my chicken burgers from a few weeks ago didn't work out so well (aka - they fell apart when I tried to flip them), I successfully made this savory sesame-ginger chicken using the grill.  Moral of the story: I just can't flip burgers.

This chicken was delicious and very easy to make.  Simply mix up the marinade, put everything in a bag in the fridge, and grill it a few hours later.  Easy peasy.  

Sesame-Ginger Chicken

Ingredients:

4 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves

1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce (I used regular soy sauce because that's what was in the cupboard, but if you're watching your sodium intake, do not use regular!)

2 tablespoons water

1 tablespoon dried onion flakes

1 tablespoon sesame seeds

1/2 teaspoon ground ginger

1 clove garlic, minced

Directions:

1.  Combine the soy sauce, water, dried onion flakes, sesame seeds, ginger and garlic in a small bowl.

2.  Place chicken into a resealable plastic bag.  Pour soy sauce mixture over the chicken.  Seal bag and place in the fridge.

3.  Marinate chicken in the fridge for 4 hours or longer; turning bag occasionally.

4.  Remove chicken from the marinade.  Grill chicken over medium heat for 5 minutes; turn and continue cooking until done.
