Soy Marinated Grilled Chicken Thighs

plate with grilled chicken with a side of grilled zucchini and asparagus

I found this recipe in my Cooking Light magazine this month (July 2008). It was so easy and so so good. I don’t cook with chicken thighs often, this was my first time actually grilling them, I love how they turned out, very juicy and moist. I served the chicken with sauteed zucchini, squash and asparagus drizzled with a soy/sesame sauce that I put together at the last minute. I threw some soy sauce, a small amount of the red chili sauce, a drop of sesame oil and some sesame seeds in a bowl and whisked it together. Easy dinner and easy cleanup for a Sunday night!! Enjoy!
