Grilled Teriyaki Chicken is a flavorful dish featuring marinated chicken breasts grilled to perfection, served with a sweet and savory glaze.

Scale

In a medium bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, brown sugar, honey, rice vinegar, sesame oil, minced garlic, grated ginger, and black pepper to create the marinade.
Place the chicken breasts in a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish and pour the marinade over the top. Seal the bag or cover the dish and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, preferably a couple of hours or overnight.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
Remove the chicken from the marinade, letting any excess drip off, and discard the marinade.
Place the chicken on the grill and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
If desired, brush some fresh marinade on the chicken during the last few minutes of grilling.
For a thicker sauce, combine the leftover marinade (if set aside) with cornstarch and water in a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring until it thickens.
Once cooked, remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for about 5 minutes before slicing.
Serve with a sprinkle of sesame seeds and chopped green onions on top.

For best results, marinate the chicken overnight.
Serve with steamed rice or grilled vegetables for a complete meal.
Ensure the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F for safe consumption.
