Description

This marinated and grilled curry chicken is served with a savory, flavorful sauce that perfectly complements saffron rice.

Ingredients

1/3 cup reduced-sodium soy sauce
2 tablespoons minced garlic
2 tablespoons minced fresh ginger root
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
2 teaspoons curry powder
6 (5 ounce) skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
1 1/4 cups low-sodium chicken broth
1 teaspoon cornstarch
1 teaspoon water

Directions

1 Stir soy sauce, garlic, ginger, lime juice, and curry powder together in a glass container. Add chicken and toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate for 1 to 3 hours.
2 Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate. Remove the chicken from the marinade and pour marinade into a small saucepan; set aside.
3 Cook chicken on the preheated grill until no longer pink in the center and juices run clear, 4 to 6 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Remove from the grill and let rest for 10 minutes.
4 While chicken is cooking, stir cornstarch and water together in a small bowl until well combined. Add to the reserved marinade, then mix in chicken broth. Bring sauce to a boil and cook until sauce has thickened a bit, 10 to 14 minutes. Serve curry-soy sauce over the chicken.
