2 pieces boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut in half lengthwise
1/4 cup low sodium soy sauce
1/4 cup unsweetened apple sauce
1/4 cup finely chopped yellow onion
1 teaspoon sesame oil
1 teaspoon grated ginger
1 tablespoon light brown sugar
2 cloves garlic cloves, crushed
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
1 teaspoon sesame seeds, plus more for topping
2 pieces 2 thinly sliced green onions

Steps:

Place the chicken breasts, 1 at a time, in a Ziploc bag. Pound the chicken breast to aneven thickness, about 1⁄2 inch thick, being careful not to puncture the bag.
In a medium bowl, combine the soy sauce, apple sauce, onion, sesame oil, ginger, brown sugar, garlic, red pepper flakes, if using and sesame seeds. Reserve 1⁄4 cup of the marinade and transfer the remainder to the Ziploc bag with the chicken. Refrigerate and marinate for at least 1 hour.
Over medium-high heat, grill the chicken for 2 to 3 minutes or until it no longer sticks to the grill. Turn the chicken, spoon the reserved 1⁄4 cup of marinade over each breast and grill an addition 2 to 3 minutes.
