Ingredients
Instructions
-
In a bowl, combine the soy sauce, honey, lime juice, minced garlic, grated ginger, allspice, salt, and pepper. Mix well until the honey is fully incorporated.
-
Place the chicken breasts in a resealable plastic bag or shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring that each piece is well coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
-
Remove the chicken from the fridge and let it come to room temperature while preheating your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
-
Remove the chicken from the marinade, allowing any excess to drip off. Discard the remaining marinade.
-
Brush the chicken breasts with olive oil to prevent sticking on the grill. Place the chicken on the grill and cook for about 6-7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and the chicken is no longer pink in the center.
-
While the chicken is cooking, mix the chopped green onions and cilantro in a small bowl to prepare the garnish.
-
Remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes before serving.
-
Place the grilled chicken on a platter and sprinkle the green onion and cilantro garnish over the top.
-
Serve with your favorite side dishes such as coconut rice, grilled vegetables, or a fresh green salad.
