Grille Sesame Ginger Chicken


We have been trying to eat healthier, and have chicken a few times a week. After a while, it does get boring. This is a quick, delicious recipe that will spice up mundane chicken. The key to juicy, moist, grilled chicken is to cook low and slow. When you rush and try grilling on a high heat, you end up with dry, tough chicken.

 Ingredients:
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1/8 teaspoon powdered ginger
pinch roasted garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon seasoning salt

Begin by making a marinade. Mix all the ingredients is a small bowl. Cover the chicken breasts with the mixture. Allow to rest for 20 minutes, while preheating your grill to about 400 degrees. Place chicken on the grill and lower the temperature to the grill's lowest setting. Mine drops down to about 325 degrees. Grill breasts for 10 minutes a side, then check with a meat thermometer. The internal temperature should be at least 165 degrees for chicken. When the temperature is met, remove from the grill and allow about 5 minutes for the chicken to rest.

Slice and enjoy with your favorite sides. I like mine with yellow rice and peas, with some diced grape  tomatoes on top.
