Ingredients:
For the Marinade:
- Chicken Pieces: You can use boneless, skinless chicken breasts, thighs, drumsticks, or a combination.
- Honey: For sweetness and a glossy finish.
- Soy Sauce: Adds saltiness and depth of flavor.
- Olive Oil: For moisture and flavor.
- Garlic: Minced garlic cloves for flavor.
- Lemon Juice: Freshly squeezed lemon juice for a tangy kick.
- Dried Herbs: You can use a combination of dried herbs like thyme, oregano, rosemary, or basil.
- Salt and Pepper: For seasoning.
Optional Garnish:

Preparation:
Here’s how to make honey grilled chicken:
- In a bowl, whisk together the honey, soy sauce, olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, dried herbs, salt, and pepper to create the marinade.
- Place the chicken pieces in a resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish.
- Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring that each piece is well coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to marinate. For best results, marinate for 2-4 hours or overnight if possible.
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 350-400°F or 175-200°C) and oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.
- Remove the chicken from the marinade and let any excess marinade drip off.
- Grill the chicken pieces on the preheated grill for about 6-8 minutes per side, depending on the thickness of the chicken and the grill temperature. Baste the chicken with any remaining marinade during grilling.
- Grill until the chicken is cooked through, with no pink in the center, and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
- Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes.
Optional Garnish:
Sprinkle the grilled chicken with chopped fresh herbs like parsley or cilantro for added freshness and flavor.
Serving:
Serve honey grilled chicken hot with your favorite side dishes. It pairs well with grilled vegetables, rice, or a fresh salad.
Honey grilled chicken is a delightful dish that combines the sweetness of honey with the savory flavors of the marinade and the smokiness of the grill. It’s a simple yet delicious recipe that’s perfect for outdoor gatherings and barbecues. Enjoy!
