This is one recipe that will have everyone coming back for seconds!<\/p>\n<h2>Ingredients for Grilled Teriyaki Chicken<\/h2>\n<ul class=\"recipe-ingredients__list recipe-ingredients__collection splitColumns\">\n<li><strong>Sherry:<\/strong> Sherry is the base for this teriyaki sauce; it imparts deep, rich, earthy flavors that pair well with chicken. If you don&#8217;t have any sherry on hand, you can also use chicken broth in a pinch.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Soy sauce:<\/strong> An essential teriyaki ingredient, soy sauce complements the sherry and aromatics in this marinade.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Garlic and ginger:<\/strong> You&#8217;ll also need two minced garlic cloves and\u00a01\/2 teaspoon of ground ginger to punch up the teriyaki sauce with big bold flavors.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Chicken:<\/strong>\u00a0Chicken is the star of the show, so use the best quality you can find. We use two boneless skinless chicken breast halves, but you can also use tenders, wings or boneless thighs with this savory sauce.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Directions<\/h2>\n<h3>Step 1: Make the marinade<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-2052152 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Grilled-Teriyaki-Chicken_TOHD24_29066_DianaRattray_1.jpg?fit=700%2C1024\" alt=\"Marinade for grilled teriyaki chicken.\" width=\"700\" height=\"1024\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">Diana Rattray for Taste Recipes<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>In a small saucepan, combine the water, sherry (or chicken broth), soy sauce, cloves and ground ginger. Bringing them to a boil over medium heat, then cook the marinade for one minute.

Add the chicken breasts and turn to coat them in the sauce. Cover and refrigerate the chicken for at least two hours.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 3: Grill the chicken<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-2052154\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Grilled-Teriyaki-Chicken_TOHD24_29066_DianaRattray_3.jpg?fit=700%2C1024\" alt=\"Teriyaki chicken on a charcoal grill, from Taste Recipes.\" width=\"700\" height=\"1024\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">Diana Rattray for Taste Recipes<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Once the chicken has marinated for a few hours, it&#8217;s time to grill. Drain and discard the marinade. Grill the chicken, covered, over medium heat until a thermometer reads 165\u00baF.

Simply transfer them to sealed, airtight containers or storage bags and store them in the refrigerator for up to four days, until you&#8217;re ready for another helping.<\/p>\n<h3>Can you freeze chicken teriyaki?<\/h3>\n<p>You can freeze raw or cooked chicken teriyaki. Bags of raw marinated chicken teriyaki are great to meal prep and stash in the freezer for quick weeknight meals, although we suggest letting it thaw overnight before you go to grill the poultry. Uncooked chicken parts can be frozen for up to nine months.<\/p>\n<p>Cooked chicken teriyaki can also be stored in freezer containers for up to four months. Let it defrost for a few hours or overnight, then reheat the chicken in the oven or microwave.<\/p>\n<h3>Can you make chicken teriyaki ahead of time?<\/h3>\n<p>Yes, you can make chicken teriyaki ahead of time. This is a great one to double (or triple) for a crowd or to make for easy heat-and-eat dinners throughout the week. Cooked chicken teriyaki can be stored in the refrigerator for up to four days in an airtight container.<\/p>\n<h2>Grilled Teriyaki Chicken Tips<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-2052156\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Grilled-Teriyaki-Chicken_TOHD24_29066_DianaRattray_5.jpg?fit=700%2C1024\" alt=\"Grilled teriyaki chicken breasts on a plate with noodles and spinach, from a Taste Recipes recipe.\" width=\"700\" height=\"1024\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">Diana Rattray for Taste Recipes<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Can you marinate chicken too long in teriyaki sauce?<\/h3>\n<p>Yes, you can overmarinate chicken. We don&#8217;t recommend marinating chicken in a thick sauce like this for more than 24 hours. Any longer and the texture of the meat will change and turn mushy.<\/p>\n<h3>Can you bake the chicken instead of grilling it?<\/h3>\n<p>You can absolutely bake teriyaki chicken instead of grilling it. If the weather isn&#8217;t on your side, or you don&#8217;t have access to a grill, bake the teriyaki chicken at 425\u00b0 for 25 minutes.<\/p>\n<h3>What are the best sides to serve with teriyaki chicken?<\/h3>\n<p>We love this flavorful chicken with a big bowl of steamed white or jasmine rice to soak up all the yummy juices. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/dishes-beverages\/stir-fry\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/dishes-beverages\/stir-fry\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">Stir-fried veggies<\/a> or noodles, grilled pineapple and charred shishito peppers would also be delicious.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Our grilled teriyaki chicken recipe features a simple homemade marinade that infuses the chicken with aromatic flavor.
