Asian Style Grilled Chicken

I spotted Katie at Good Things Catered had a great Asian style grilled chicken dish on her blog and I decided to give it a go, only with a few edits.

It was so tasty and full of flavour, and the chicken was very juicy and tender. A delicious dish and very handy for a weeknight dinner or for a busy family.

Thanks Katie!
