Scale
- 1 cup sweet chili sauce
- 1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1 to 1.25 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts
- optional bell peppers, sliced into thin strips and lightly coated with olive oil, salt and pepper
- green onions, sliced into thin rounds for garnishing
Instructions
- Step 1: To a large ziptop plastic bag, add the sweet chili sauce, soy sauce, olive oil, lemon juice, salt, pepper, chicken, seal bag, and squish the contents around so chicken is evenly coated.
- Step 2: Place bag in the fridge to marinate for at least 1 hour (overnight is great if you can plan ahead).
- Step 3: Preheat grill to medium-high heat. Add the chicken, optional bell peppers, and grill for about 10 minutes, or until chicken (and peppers) are cooked through; flip intermittently to ensure even cooking.
- Step 4: Garnish with green onions.
