Marinated Chicken Breast Strips
Ingredients
- 1-2 lb boned chicken breasts, cut into strips
- 2 tbs sugar
- 2 tbs brown sugar
- ½ C chicken broth
- 1 tsp ground ginger
- ¼ C soy sauce
- ¼ tsp garlic powder
- 3 tbs vinegar
- ¼ tsp white pepper (OPTIONAL)
Directions
- Make Marinade: Combine broth and soy sauce with the dry ingredients, stirring until well mixed.
- Marinate Chicken: Add chicken, cover, and refrigerate 2-3 hours.
- Bake: Transfer chicken and marinade to a 12x8x2" glass baking dish. Bake at 325°F for 10 minutes.
- Firm (Optional): For firmer chicken, remove from the marinade and continue baking ~5 additional minutes.
- Serve: Serve hot with the reserved marinade on the side.
Chef's Notes
- You may also wish to leave the chicken breasts whole and grill after marinading. For this, place the breasts on grill over indirect heat and splash the marinade over the breasts as needed until they are firm. Bring your oil bottle and give them a spritz or two during the cooking process.
