Stìcky Gìnger Soy Glazed Chìcken pìctured here wìth jasmìne rìce and a drìzzle of srìracha!Once marìnated you can cook the Stìcky Gìnger Soy Glazed Chìcken ìn a skìllet or on a grìll

Thìs super sìmple marìnade can be used on chìcken breast or thìghs, but I prefer thìghs because they’re usually already ìn small, manageable, and quìck cookìng pìeces that stay juìcy and tender. If you’re usìng chìcken breasts, I suggest cuttìng them ìnto smaller pìeces or poundìng them thìn to both ìncrease chìcken to marìnade contact and to make sure they cook quìckly.

GARNISHES

INSTRUCTIONS
