Ingredients
-
1/2 small onion, finely chopped
-
3 tablespoons dark brown soft sugar
-
4 tablespoons soy sauce
-
4 tablespoons red wine vinegar
-
small handful chopped fresh thyme
-
1 teaspoon sesame oil
-
3 cloves garlic, chopped
-
1/2 teaspoon ground allspice
-
1 habanero chilli, sliced
-
4 skinless, boneless chicken breast fillets - cut into strips
Preparation method
- Combine the onion, brown sugar, soy sauce, vinegar, thyme, sesame oil, garlic, allspice and habanero in the container of a food processor or blender. Process until smooth. Place the chicken into a large resealable bag, and pour in 3/4 of the mixture. Squeeze out excess air, and seal. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least one hour.
- Preheat your oven's grill.
- Remove chicken from bag, and discard marinade. Grill chicken for 10 to 15 minutes, turning once to ensure even cooking. Heat remaining sauce in a small pan, and pour over chicken when serving.
Tip:
If you cannot find habaneros, feel free to use Scotch bonnets - they are similar in heat and flavour.
