Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 1 cup water
• 1 tablespoon brown sugar
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 3 cloves garlic, crushed
• 1 (16 ounce) package boneless, skinless chicken tenders
• 0.5 cup soy sauce

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil the grate.

Step 2

Remove chicken from the marinade and shake off excess. Discard the remaining marinade.

Step 3

Whisk water, soy sauce, olive oil, lemon juice, brown sugar, and garlic together in a large glass or ceramic bowl. Add chicken tenders and toss to evenly coat. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours.

Step 4

Place chicken on the grill and reduce heat to low. Cook for 1 minute, then turn and grill until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 4 to 6 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
