Ingredients
Scale

- 1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
- 2 tbsp rice vinegar

Instructions
- Marinate the Chicken: Cut the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces. In a bowl, whisk together soy sauce, rice vinegar, minced garlic, and brown sugar until smooth. Add chicken pieces and marinate for at least 30 minutes.
- Preheat Your Grill: Heat your grill to medium-high. If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for about 30 minutes to prevent burning.
- Assemble the Skewers: Thread marinated chicken onto skewers, ensuring even spacing for cooking.
- Grill Time!: Place skewers on the grill and cook for 10-15 minutes, turning every few minutes for even charring.
- Glaze It Up: Brush additional marinade onto skewers in the last few minutes of grilling.
- Serve and Enjoy: Transfer yakitori to a platter and optionally sprinkle with sesame seeds before serving.
