I love Korean food, This Korean BBQ chicken is the BEST grilled chicken recipe! Not just because I’m obsessed with Korean food but because it’s so juicy and flavorful
Ingredients
- ▢1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut in half lengthwise, from 2 breasts
- ▢1/4 cup low sodium or gluten-free soy sauce
- ▢1/4 cup unsweetened apple sauce
- ▢1/4 cup finely chopped yellow onion
- ▢1 tsp sesame oil
- ▢1 tsp grated ginger
- ▢1 tbsp light brown sugar
- ▢2 garlic cloves, crushed
- ▢1 teaspoon red pepper flakes, optional
- ▢1 teaspoon sesame seeds, plus more for topping
- ▢2 thinly sliced scallions, white and green parts
- Place the chicken breasts, 1 at a time, in a Ziploc bag. Pound the chicken breast to an even thickness, about ½ inch thick, being careful not to puncture the bag.
- In a medium bowl, combine the soy sauce, apple sauce, onion, sesame oil, ginger, brown sugar, garlic, red pepper flakes, if using and sesame seeds. Reserve ¼ cup of the marinade and transfer the remainder to the Ziploc bag with the chicken. Refrigerate and marinate for at least 1 hour.
- Over medium-high heat, grill the chicken for 2 to 3 minutes or until it no longer sticks to the grill. Turn the chicken, spoon the reserved ¼ cup of marinade over each breast and grill an addition 2 to 3 minutes.
