INGREDIENTS

  • 1 ½ -2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • For the Marinade:
  • 1 cup canned coconut milk
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • For the Sauce:
  • ¼ cup rice wine vinegar
  • ¼ cup fresh squeezed lime juice
  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • ¼ cup honey
  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce

DIRECTIONS

  1. Combine the coconut milk, garlic powder, salt, pepper, and soy sauce in a
    shallow casserole dish or zip top bag. Add the chicken and allow to
    marinade in the refrigerator for 3-12 hours.
  2. When ready to cook, make the sauce by whisking together the vinegar,
    lime juice, brown sugar, honey and soy sauce in a small saucepan. Bring
    to a simmer over medium heat and cook until thickened and sauce coats
    the back of a spoon, about 8-10 minutes. Remove from the heat and set
    aside.
  3. Preheat the grill on medium heat and oil the grill grates if needed. Remove
    the chicken from the marinade and place on the grill using tongs.
  4. Cook the chicken over medium heat for 4-5 minutes per side or until the
    internal temperature reads 165 degrees F.
  5. During the last few minutes of cooking, brush the sauce over the chicken,
    repeating as desired for a thicker coating and remove from the heat.
  6. Serve the chicken with the remaining sauce and sprinkle with chopped
    fresh cilantro if desired.
