We LOVE This Super Simple, Sweet Sriracha Grilled Chicken!
Such satisfying flavor and so simple to throw together!
you're making mealtime meaningful.
This delicious grilled chicken is an often requested weekday dinner in our household, and a favorite among friends at weekend barbeques. Whenever we find ourselves craving that sweet-tangy-salty-spicy flavor combination, this super easy marinade totally hits the spot. The Sriracha adds just the right amount of punch to the palate, the honey lends that mouth-watering sweetness and the lime imparts yummy, balancing tang – and there’s no need to add any salt, because the soy sauce takes care of that factor all on its own!
So simple to throw together, you might even find you already have the ingredients on hand and can skip a trip to the store! Try it on pork or beef as well!
