Hoisin Wasabi Grilled Chicken

This perfect and wonderfully delicious marinade would also work as a dipping sauce or as a sauce for a stir fry (doubling, if not quadrupling the amounts, of course).  It is spicy and sweet and delicious.  Simple and easy to prepare... life doesn't get much better than that!

Ingredients:
1 Tablespoon hoisin sauce
2 teaspoons prepared wasabi
1/2 teaspoon soy sauce
2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

Directions:
Mix together the hoisin, wasabi, and soy sauce until well combined.  Place chicken in a resealable bag or shallow dish and pour marinade over it.  Cover/seal and place in refrigerator for 2-4 hours.

Preheat grill to 375 degrees F.  Clean and oil grill grates.  Remove chicken from bag and discard marinade.  Place chicken directly over the fire and grill for 6-10 minutes per side or until the chicken registers 160-165 degrees F internally.  Remove from grill and allow to rest for 4-5 minutes before serving.  Enjoy!

This puts me in a hungry mood. AND I just found a can of wasabi powder in the fridge last night.

This sounds very hot, but I bet Kevin would love it. I think his taste buds burned out years ago from all the hot sauce and peppers he's eaten. :-)

Looks delicious, Jenn. And I'll try it too, just so you know. :-)

I have a tube of wasabi paste in the fridge, but was at a loss as to what to do with it. A plan is beginning to form :-). Have a great day. Blessings...Mary
