Calories 651kcal

Ingredients 

  • 3 pounds chicken breasts
  • 2 cups low sodium soy sauce
  • 2 cups water
  • 1 1/2 cups brown sugar
  • 1 bunch green onions finely chopped, reserve some for garnish later
  • 1/4 cup sweet onion finely chopped
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 13.5 ounces coconut milk

Instructions

  • Trim chicken of any fat. For chicken breasts, since they are thicker, I poke them with a fork all over so the marinade can soak in.
  • In a large bowl, mix soy sauce, water, brown sugar, onions, garlic, sesame oil, and coconut milk.
  • Pour marinade over chicken and marinate for at least four hours, overnight is preferred. (for chicken breasts, I would definitely say over night is best to ensure the flavor is greatly absorbed)
  • Grill chicken until chicken is cooked through, switching sides half way through.
  • It is delicious over coconut rice, garnished with green onions and any additional soy sauce if needed!
  • To make coconut rice: Replace half of the water in your rice recipe with coconut milk.
