Main Ingredients

Marinade Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a bowl, combine the soy sauce, brown sugar, minced garlic, grated ginger, and sesame oil. Stir until the brown sugar is dissolved.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Chicken

    Place the chicken breasts in a resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring it is well coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for best results.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

  2. 4

    Grill the Chicken

    Remove the chicken from the marinade and discard the marinade. Place the chicken on the grill and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the chicken is cooked through and has nice grill marks.

  3. 5

    Glaze with Teriyaki Sauce

    During the last few minutes of grilling, brush the chicken with teriyaki sauce, allowing it to caramelize slightly on the grill.

Serving

  1. 6

    Garnish and Serve

    Once cooked, remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and chopped cilantro. Serve with additional teriyaki sauce on the side.
