Ingredients needed 2 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Adding 1/3 cup of water to the marinade helps prevent the sauce from burning during cooking.
  • Adding green onions too early will dull their freshness—add them midway through grilling to preserve both texture and aroma.
  • Always start grilling the chicken skin-side down to allow fat to render out and achieve a crisp exterior with tender interior.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to enjoy high-quality chicken dishes at home instead of ordering takeout.
  • People who love spicy-sweet grilled chicken with deep umami flavor.
  • Those seeking tender, clean-tasting chicken thigh without the typical gamey smell.
