How to make Grilled Chicken with Soy Sauce
Preparation
Clean the chicken, coat with lime juice and a little salt, let stand for 10 minutes, then rinse. Make cuts in the meat so that the spices can easily be absorbed.
Cooking
Saute the fine spices with a little oil and margarine until cooked and the spices turn darker.
Add brown sugar and soy sauce to the spices and stir.
Put the chicken in the sauteed spices. Pour water until the chicken is submerged.
Add a little salt and seasoning. Cook until the water reduces and the sauce thickens.
Place the chicken in the oven or grill and brush with the thick sauce. Bake in the oven at 200°C, top heat.

FAQS
How can I make grilled chicken with soy sauce suitable for a gluten-free diet?
To make grilled chicken with soy sauce gluten-free, simply substitute regular soy sauce with gluten-free soy sauce or tamari. This will ensure that the dish remains flavorful while accommodating gluten sensitivities.
What can I use as a substitute for candlenuts in the grilled chicken recipe?
If you can't find candlenuts, you can substitute them with macadamia nuts or cashews. Both options will provide a similar creamy texture and nutty flavor, enhancing the overall taste of the grilled chicken.
How should I store leftover grilled chicken with soy sauce?
To store leftover grilled chicken, let it cool to room temperature, then place it in an airtight container. It can be refrigerated for up to 3-4 days. For longer storage, consider freezing it, which can keep it fresh for up to 3 months.
What side dishes pair well with grilled chicken marinated in soy sauce?
Grilled chicken with soy sauce pairs wonderfully with steamed rice, sautéed vegetables, or a fresh salad. You can also serve it with a side of stir-fried noodles for a complete meal that complements the savory flavors of the chicken.
What is the best way to ensure the chicken absorbs the marinade flavors?
To ensure the chicken absorbs the marinade flavors effectively, make shallow cuts in the meat before marinating. This allows the spices and soy sauce to penetrate deeper into the chicken, resulting in a more flavorful grilled dish.
