The marinade makes a savory statement in this all-time-favorite chicken recipe that I served at our son's pirate-theme birthday party. It smelled so good on the grill that guests could hardly wait to try a piece!

We love trying different marinades, and this is a definite winner! We don't have a grill, so I marinated cut-up chicken breasts and then cooked them on the stove. Delicious!

I have always left out the sesame seeds because I never have them in my pantry but it is the easiest and best chicken marinade ever! Have used this since it was first published several years ago and it is always well received.

The chicken had good flavor from the soy sauce, garlic and ginger. I'm not sure what makes it "tropical." Overall, a very good recipe.
