Hoisin-Glazed Chicken Breasts

This is a tasty Grilled Chicken Recipe. Recipes for grilling are often low fat because it doesn't require cooking oil so it's a great way to cook healthily. Chicken breasts work particularly well as they are a thin, lean cut of meat. This is an advantage because they cook through before they dry out.

Grilled Chicken Recipe Ingrediets

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1/3 cup hoisin sauce
1 tablespoon low-sodium soy sauce
1 tablespoon and 1 teaspoon of rice vinegar (separate amounts)
3 cups shredded green cabbage
1 red pepper, cut into strips
1 green pepper, cut into strips
3 spring onions, cut into strips
1/2 cup fresh coriander leaves

How to Grill Chicken

Heat up your grill on high. Rinse the chicken breasts and dry them with paper towel. Pound the chicken fillets to an even thinness then place them on the grill pan. In a bowl, whisk together the hoisin sauce, soy sauce and 1 teaspoon of the vinegar to make the glaze. Transfer 2 tablespoons of the glaze to a larger bowl and stir in the remaining vinegar. Add the cabbage peppers, spring onions and coriander and toss together. Cove and refridgerate.

Pour 1 tablespoon of the remaining glaze into a small bowl and set aside. Now brush the grilling chicken with what's left of the glaze and start grilling the chicken while brushing with the glaze occassionally until cooked. It should take about 8 minutes. Spoon some of the remaining glaze over the top of the chicken breasts and serve with the slaw.
