For teriyaki chicken
1. In a large Ziploc bag or a nonreactive container, combine
vinegar, lime juice, honey, soy sauce, white of the onion,
ginger, garlic, and pepper. Add in the chicken and seal the bag
or cover with plastic wrap. Allow chicken to marinate for at
least 20-30 minutes - overnight if possible. The longer you can
marinate the better - the soy sauce needs time to salt the
chicken properly.
2. Preheat your oven to 425 degrees and adjust the oven rack to
the middle. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and lay out
the chicken. Try to shake off as much marinade as possible –
reserve marinade. Bake for 25 - 30 minutes, turning once or
twice to avoid burning. Pour marinade into a small saucepot.
Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and reduce by half to
use as baste. Save ¼ cup of reduced marinade for later in the
week, Meal #3.
3. During the last 10 minutes of baking, lightly brush the chicken
with the reduced marinade and return to the oven to finish
baking.
4. Reserve half of the cooked chicken, store in an airtight
container or Ziploc bag, and refrigerate for use later in the
week. Serve the remaining chicken warm with bok choy and
quinoa.
For bok choy
Ten minutes before the chicken is done cooking, place the bok choy
onto the baking sheet in between or next to the chicken, cut side up.
Brush lightly with marinade and return to the oven for the remaining
10 minutes.
For Asian flavored quinoa
1. On dinner night, reheat the quinoa in a medium sauce pot over
low heat with a Tablespoon of water. Cover with a lid and
steam until warm, fluff with a fork.
2. Add the soy sauce, vinegar, lime juice, grapeseed oil, carrots,
snow peas, onion, and cilantro to the warm quinoa. Stir to
combine and serve warm
