Adapted from the Food Network Magazine
- Serves 2 -
Printable Recipe
Ingredients:
1/4 cup hoisin
1/8 - 1/4 teaspoon Chinese five spice (five spice packs a pretty good flavor punch, start off with 1/8 tsp, taste, and add more - you can always add more, you can't take away!!)
1 teaspoon honey
1 teaspoon rice vinegar
1 teaspoon mirin (if you don't have mirin just use more rice vinegar)
2 teaspoons soy sauce
1 teaspoon water
2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
Directions:
In a bowl, mix together all the ingredients except the chicken together until well combined. Reserve 2 tablespoons of the sauce and set aside. Rinse chicken, pat dry, and place in a shallow dish. Spread the remaining hoisin mixture over the chicken, cover, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
Preheat grill to 375 degrees F. Oil the grill grates and place the chicken directly over the fire. Grill 8-10 minutes on each side or until chicken reaches an internal temperature of 160-165 degrees F. Remove from grill and allow to rest for 3-5 minutes before serving. Serve with reserved sauce and enjoy!

I might do this with bone-in chicken thighs (I realize that is not an option for you). And of course I'd have to broil it or use our stovetop grill pan (which, by the way I don't know where to find since we moved to DC).
Yum. As you well know the flavors you've used make me happy happy happy! THis sounds really delicious and a different way to get those beloved Asian flavors into dinner. yay!
Your sliced chicken looks nice and moist and the outside color is very pretty- nice job Jenn.
So up my alley. I've got some chicken breasts in the freezer and now I know what I'm going to do with them!
Another amazing sauce!
People often think they need to glamourize foods, not realizing that a few simple ingredients can be transformed into something as gorgeous and delicious as this chicken ... :)
Fabulous flavors - the chicken looks SO good - I'm bookmarking this for sure

That looks fantastic, Jenn! I would love the spicy flavor!
I love this recipe. I love your Hoisin sauce and the chicken looks wonderful. That is is simple to make doesn't hurt either. I hope you have a great day. Blessings...Mary
I wonder if you and I ever do grilled chicken the same way twice....ever. Just like you, I'm always doing different variations, they are all good, but I don't know that I ever do two the exact same way.
You always feature the most mouth watering grilled dishes over here, Jenn. As full as I am right now, I could definitely eat a piece of that chicken.
The chicken looks so succulent and juicy, and you know I love hoisin, so it's definitely a winner. I used to think Chinese five spice smells a bit weird but I love it now. Funny how our palate changes.
