Grilled Teriyaki Chicken

Boneless chicken is marinated in a simple sweet, and savory teriyaki sauce. This homemade sauce is super easy to make with ingredients you likely have on hand; like orange juice, soy sauce, honey, and ginger.

Ingredients :

  • ¼ cup orange juice
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 2 tablespoons ketchup
  • 2 green onions sliced
  • 1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger
  • 1 tablespoon sweet rice wine optional
  • 1 clove garlic minced

Directions :

  • To make the marinade, in a medium bowl, whisk together orange juice, soy sauce, honey, ketchup, green onion, ginger, rice wine, and garlic.
  • If using chicken breasts, pound to ½-inch thickness with the flat side of a meat mallet. Chicken thighs do not need to be pounded.
  • Marinate the chicken for at least 2 hours or overnight.
  • Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from marinade, let excess drip off, and discard any marinade.
  • Grill the chicken 5 to 7 minutes per side or until cooked through and no pink remains (165°F).
