Ingredients:

• 6 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
• 1 tsp chopped garlic
• 1/2 cup grated fresh ginger
• 1 cup rice wine
• 1/4 cup orange juice
• BBQ Sauce:
• 1 cup honey
• 1/2 cup toasted sesame seeds
• 1 cup tomato paste
• 1 tbsp lime juice
• 1/4 cup packed (dark) brown sugar
• 1/8 tsp ground cloves
• Salt and pepper to taste

Method

In a bowl or ziptop bag combine meat, garlic, 1/4 cup of the grated ginger, 3/4 cup of the rice wine and the orange juice; marinate in refrigerator overnight. Make BBQ sauce by combining the remaining rice wine and grated ginger with the rest of the sauce ingredients; chill overnight in covered bowl, if making ahead. Lift meat from marinade. Grill meat, turning occasionally, until nearly cooked, then baste BBQ sauce generously on both sides and cook about 5 minutes more per side.

Notes: If desired, substitute 6 boneless pork chops, 1/2- to 3/4-inches thick. This is lovely & tasty, and adds a little "kick" to your day.

Number of servings: 6
