Asian Chicken Ingredients

The sticky and sweet sauce on this Asian glazed chicken is absolutely incredible. It is made with a delicious soy sauce, hoisin sauce, sweet chili sauce, brown sugar, and a squeeze of fresh lime! See the recipe card at the bottom of the post for exact measurements.

Chicken Breasts or boneless chicken thighs: Choose thighs for a juicer softer chicken and a chicken breast for a lower fat option.Olive Oil: This oil is used to cook the chicken and keep it from sticking to the pan.Brown Sugar: The molasses in this sugar adds to the rich sweetness of the glaze.Soy Sauce: This salty sauce adds to the deep savory flavor of this chicken dish.Hoisin sauce: Look for hoisin sauce in the international food isle. It is a much thicker, saltier version of Teriyaki sauce.Sweet Chili Sauce: Stores in the pantry for 1 month. Refrigerate to keep this ingredient fresh for 6-9 months.Ginger: Ginger is easy to peel and grate using the back of a spoon and fork.Dried red pepper flakes: Add to tasteMinced garlic: Chop the garlic yourself or use a garlic press to release intense, immediate flavor.Juice of one lime: This equates to about 2 tablespoons of lime juice.

Not only is this delicious but the very best part is that it’s is ready in just 30 minutes. All you need to do is garnish with some sesame seeds and chopped green onions, and then you have an easy restaurant-quality meal right at home!

Soy Allergy: Use tamari or coconut aminos to replace the soy sauce if you have a soy allergy.Chicken: My favorite way to cook this insanely delicious meal is to use chicken thighs instead of chicken breasts. Chicken thighs give you the crispy skin on the outside and juicy flavorful chicken on the inside.Drumsticks: A great variation I loved with this recipe is drumsticks. The bone in chicken takes about twice as long to cook depending on the thickness but was an instant favorite!

In the Refrigerator: Let chicken cool completely before storing. Then, wrap chicken tightly with aluminum foil or put in a shallow airtight container and refrigerate on the top shelf. It should las for about 3 days. To Freeze: To extend the length of time you can store your chicken in the freezer instead for up to 6 months. Let it thaw in the fridge before reheating it on the stove.
