Ingredients
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
1 tablespoon honey
1 teaspoon lemon juice
Salt and pepper, to taste
2 tablespoons sesame seeds (optional)
Chopped green onions for garnish
Instructions
- In a bowl, combine soy sauce, sesame oil, olive oil, garlic, ginger, rice vinegar, honey, and lemon juice. Whisk until the marinade is well-blended.
- Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Place them in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over the chicken. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or overnight for a more intense flavor.
- Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
- Remove the chicken from the marinade (discard the marinade) and place it on the grill.
- Grill the chicken for 6-8 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C) and the chicken is fully cooked.
- Remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing it into strips.
- Garnish with sesame seeds and chopped green onions before serving.
Notes
For a full hibachi experience, you can grill vegetables like bell peppers, zucchini, or onions alongside the chicken.
If you like it spicy, add chili flakes or a touch of sriracha to the marinade for a kick.
