Teriyaki-Glazed Grilled Chicken image

Take grilled chicken breasts in a tasty, direction with this clever recipe: the chicken is pounded so it cooks quickly and evenly, then a tangy homemade hoisin-teriyaki glaze goes on in the last few minutes of cooking to create a delicious char.

Provided by Lauryn Tyrell

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Chicken     Chicken Breast Recipes

Time 50m

Yield Serves 6 to 8

Number Of Ingredients 8

8 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (each about 8 ounces)
1/4 cup ketchup
2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
2 tablespoons light brown sugar
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
2 teaspoons sesame oil
1 small garlic clove, grated
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper

Steps:

  • Place chicken breasts between two layers of plastic wrap and lightly pound them to an even thickness (about 1/2 inch). Let stand at room temperature about 30 minutes.
  • While chicken rests, whisk together ketchup, hoisin, brown sugar, lime juice, sesame oil, and garlic.
  • Season both sides of chicken with salt and pepper. Prepare grill for direct-heat cooking; let grates get very hot (this ensures a good sear without drying out meat).
  • Oil grates and cook chicken, turning occasionally, until charred in places and cooked through, 8 to 10 minutes total. In the last 2 to 3 minutes of cooking, brush hoisin mixture over both sides of chicken, turning occasionally; serve.

GRILLED TERIYAKI CHICKEN TENDERS



Grilled Teriyaki Chicken Tenders image

My aunt shared this basic teriyaki marinade for chicken tenders with me 40 years ago. Her original recipe called for a lot more sugar and soy sauce. I have tweaked it over the years to get the flavor we love.

Categories     Main Dish Recipes     Chicken     Chicken Teriyaki Recipes

Time 1h20m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 8

½ cup soy sauce
⅓ cup water
¼ cup rice wine vinegar
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1 clove garlic, smashed
1 dash Worcestershire sauce
1 (16 ounce) package boneless, skinless chicken tenders

Steps:

  • Whisk soy sauce, water, vinegar, brown sugar, ginger, garlic, and Worcestershire sauce together in a bowl and pour into a 1-gallon resealable plastic bag. Add chicken tenders, coat with the marinade, squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or up to 4 hours.
  • Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
  • Remove chicken from the marinade and shake off excess. Discard the remaining marinade.
  • Place chicken on the grill and cook until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 3 to 4 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

Tips:

  • To make the best grilled chicken teriyaki, use boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs. Chicken breasts will cook more quickly than thighs, so adjust your cooking time accordingly.
  • Be sure to marinate the chicken for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight. This will help the chicken to absorb the flavors of the marinade and make it more tender.
  • When grilling the chicken, cook it over medium heat. This will help to prevent the chicken from burning on the outside while remaining raw in the center.
  • Baste the chicken with the remaining marinade while it is grilling. This will help to keep the chicken moist and flavorful.
  • Once the chicken is cooked through, remove it from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
  • Serve the grilled chicken teriyaki with rice, noodles, or vegetables. You can also add a side of dipping sauce, such as soy sauce or teriyaki sauce.

Conclusion:

Grilled chicken teriyaki is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal or a backyard barbecue. With just a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a flavorful and satisfying meal that the whole family will enjoy. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy dinner idea, give grilled chicken teriyaki a try!
