Hawaiian Style Teriyaki Chicken
Aloha from my kitchen. I just cooked some Hawaiian Style Teriyaki Chicken, which has all the sweet and savory tastes you could want. Ideal for a family supper or meal prep!
Yield: 4
Materials
- - 4 chicken breasts boneless and skinless
- - 1 cup soy sauce
- - 1/2 cup brown sugar
- - 1/4 cup water
- - 2 tablespoons honey
- - 1 tablespoon minced garlic
- - 1 tablespoon minced ginger
- - 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- - 1 teaspoon cornstarch
- - 1/4 cup pineapple juice
- - 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- - 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- - 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes optional
- - Green onions and sesame seeds for garnish
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together soy sauce, brown sugar, water, honey, garlic, ginger, sesame oil, pineapple juice, apple cider vinegar, black pepper, and red pepper flakes until well combined.
- Place the chicken breasts in a large ziplock bag and pour the marinade over the chicken. Seal the bag and ensure all pieces are well coated. Marinate for at least 2 hours, or overnight for best flavor.
- Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade and grill for 5-7 minutes on each side or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
- While the chicken is grilling, pour the remaining marinade into a small saucepan. Mix cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of water and stir into the marinade. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until the sauce thickens.
- Brush the thickened sauce over the grilled chicken. Garnish with green onions and sesame seeds.
