Hoisin and Lime-Marinated Grilled Chicken

I really liked this. It took a bit of time, since D grilled it, but I worked out.
So anyway, there was a hint of lime taste to it. But all the spices/sauces meshed well.

We had it with Peanutty Couscous, which still is salty, but good.

Leftovers: you can really taste the garlic.

Hoisin and Lime-Marinated Grilled Chicken


1/4 cup hoisin sauce
1 tablespoon grated peeled fresh ginger
2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
1 teaspoon grated lime rind
2 teaspoons dark sesame oil
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
8 garlic cloves, minced
6 (6-ounce) skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
Cooking spray

Combine hoisin sauce, ginger, and next 5 ingredients (through garlic) in a large zip-top plastic bag. Add chicken to bag; seal. Marinate in refrigerator for 2 hours, turning bag occasionally.

Prepare grill.

Remove chicken from bag; discard marinade. Place chicken on grill rack coated with cooking spray, and grill for 5 minutes on each side or until chicken is done.
