Time 12h20m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 cup white sugar
½ cup soy sauce
½ cup water
¼ cup minced onion
2 tablespoons minced garlic
½ teaspoon black pepper
½ teaspoon sesame oil
4 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs

Steps:

  • Combine sugar, soy sauce, water, onion, garlic, pepper, and sesame oil in a blender; process until well blended.
  • Put chicken into a large glass or ceramic bowl. Pour marinade over top and toss to evenly coat. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for 12 to 24 hours.
  • Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
  • Remove chicken from the marinade and shake off excess. Discard the remaining marinade.
  • Cook chicken on the preheated grill until slightly crisp on the outside, no longer pink in the center, and the juices run clear, about 4 to 8 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
