Note

For the best flavor, use fresh grated ginger root instead of ground ginger if available. Imported soy sauce provides a richer, more complex taste than domestic brands.

Cut the chicken into serving pieces if it isn't already. Ensure all pieces are of similar size for even cooking.

Marinate the chicken in a shallow baking dish, turning occasionally to ensure even coating. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight for deeper flavor.

When grilling or broiling, baste the chicken frequently with the remaining marinade. Discard any leftover marinade that has touched raw chicken.

Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in a skillet or microwave.
