Cook Mode

Ingredients

2 lbs boneless skinless chicken thighs
3 tablespoons Revolution Barbecue Korean BBQ Rub
1/4 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup rice vinegar
2 tablespoons sesame oil
2 tablespoons honey
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
2 green onions, chopped (for garnish)
1 tablespoon sesame seeds (for garnish)

Directions

Marinate the Chicken

Coat the chicken thighs evenly with the Korean BBQ Rub.
Place the chicken in a resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or up to overnight.

Prepare the Glaze and Dipping Sauce

In a medium bowl, mix together the soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, honey, minced garlic, and grated ginger.
Divide the mixture into two equal portions. One will be used for glazing the chicken while grilling, and the other will be reserved as a dipping sauce.

Preheat the Grill

Preheat the grill to medium-high heat (375-400°F).

Grill the Chicken

Remove the chicken thighs from the plastic bag and grill the chicken thighs for 5-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
During the last few minutes of grilling, brush the chicken thighs with the glaze mixture.

Serve

Allow the chicken to rest for a few minutes after grilling.
Garnish with chopped green onions and sesame seeds.
Serve the grilled chicken thighs with the reserved dipping sauce on the side.

Recipe Note

To complete this delicious meal, serve your Korean BBQ Grilled Chicken Thighs on a bed of steaming white rice.
