Asian Marinated Chicken!
As part of my calorie deficit weight loss plan, I eat a lot of chicken! Chicken is high in protein and low in calories, and you can do so much with it to keep your meals delicious and fun!
I made this Asian marinated chicken to put into tacos with Thai peanut sauce, but just the chicken alone was so good that I had to give it it's moment! ...and it made awesome leftovers!
Very easy. Great for meal prep. I used thighs and grilled mine, but you can any chicken you like. Wings, legs and breasts would be so good. I grilled mine, but after you marinate the chicken you can cook yours however you like! It all works!
