Ingredients

• •4 chicken quarters (legs and thighs)
• •1/2 cup cane vinegar
• •1/4 cup soy sauce
• •1/4 cup calamansi juice (or lemon juice)
• •1 head garlic, minced
• •2 tbsp ginger, minced
• •1 tsp paprika
• •1 tsp black pepper
• •1/4 cup brown sugar
• •1 tsp salt
• •2 tbsp vegetable oil (for grilling)
• •Cooked rice (for serving)

Instructions

1. 1

   In a large bowl, combine cane vinegar, soy sauce, calamansi juice, minced garlic, minced ginger, paprika, black pepper, brown sugar, and salt.

2. 2

   Add the chicken quarters to the marinade, ensuring they are fully coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or preferably overnight for more flavor.

3. 3

   Preheat your grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.

4. 4

   Remove the chicken from the marinade and let the excess marinade drip off. Discard the remaining marinade.

5. 5

   Place the chicken on the grill and cook for about 10-15 minutes per side, or until the chicken is cooked through and has a nice char, making sure to baste with vegetable oil to keep it moist.

6. 6

   Check the chicken's internal temperature with a meat thermometer; it should reach 165°F (75°C).

7. 7

   Once cooked, remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes before serving.

8. 8

   Serve the grilled Chicken Inasal with steamed rice and your choice of dipping sauce. Enjoy!
