A flavorful and easy marinade for chicken, perfect for grilling or baking.
In a small saucepan, combine the soy sauce, honey, ground ginger, minced garlic, and black pepper.
Heating the marinade helps to blend the flavors together.
Heat the mixture over low heat for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, then let it cool.
Allowing the marinade to cool prevents cooking the chicken prematurely.
Place the chicken breasts in a mixing bowl and pour the cooled marinade over them.
Ensure the chicken is fully coated for even flavor distribution.
Cover and refrigerate the chicken for at least 3 hours or overnight.
The longer the chicken marinates, the more flavorful it will be.
Grill the chicken over medium heat or bake in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) until fully cooked, about 20-25 minutes.
Use a meat thermometer to ensure the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
Serve the chicken hot, garnished with fresh herbs if desired.
Pair with a side of steamed rice or vegetables for a complete meal.
