Grilled Teriyaki Chicken

One of my all time favorite recipes for Teriyaki Chicken (EF, DF, GF) now on the grill!  We were wanting to grill chicken but I didn't have enough Italian dressing to make Easy Grilled Chicken (EF, DF, GF) and didn't want to go to the store.  My genius husband suggested we use the teriyaki marinade we use all the time.  Such a fantastic idea!  Best grilled chicken ever.  We had ours with some asian chopped salad and rice.  Yummy!!

 

 

Grilled Teriyaki Chicken

¾ c reduced-sodium soy sauce*

¼ c vegetable oil              

3 T brown sugar

1 t garlic powder

½ t ground ginger

6 boneless, skinless breasts (about 2-2 ½ pounds)

In a large gallon plastic bag, combine the first five ingredients.  Mix well.  Add chicken.  Refrigerate for 4-8 hours, turning at least once.  Drain and discard marinade.  Grill to perfection. 

 

We have a kamado style smoker and convection grill.  These aren’t extremely common.  But if you do have one, this is how we cooked it.  Set the dome temperature to 370 ^oF.  Cook on each side for about 10-12 minutes per side or until the internal temperature of the chicken is more than 160 ^oF.
