Steps:
- 1. Combine the teriyaki sauce, lemon juice, garlic and sesame oil in a large Ziploc bag. Add the chicken. Shake to coat. Place in the refrigerator for 1-12 hours to marinate, turning every so often.
- 2. Preheat grill on medium-high heat and lightly oil the grill grate (before it gets too hot).
- 3. Remove chicken, discarding marinade, and place on the grill.
- 4. Grill for about 6-8 minutes on each side or until juices run clear. (This could take even less time depending on the thickness of your chicken breasts.)
Tips:
- Choose the right chicken: Boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs work best for this recipe. If using chicken breasts, pound them to an even thickness to ensure even cooking.
- Make sure the chicken is well-marinated: The marinade helps to flavor and tenderize the chicken. Marinate the chicken for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight.
- Grill the chicken over medium heat: This will help to prevent the chicken from burning on the outside and remaining raw on the inside.
- Cook the chicken until it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit: You can check the temperature using a meat thermometer.
- Let the chicken rest before serving: This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the chicken, making it more tender and flavorful.
Conclusion:
This grilled chicken teriyaki is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The chicken is marinated in a flavorful teriyaki sauce and then grilled to perfection. Serve the chicken with rice or noodles and your favorite vegetables.
