Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Marinate the Chicken

    In a bowl, combine the chicken breasts with half of the teriyaki sauce. Cover and let marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Grill

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Brush the grill grates with vegetable oil to prevent sticking.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Grill the Chicken

    Remove the chicken from the marinade and place it on the grill. Grill for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).

  2. 4

    Glaze with Teriyaki Sauce

    During the last 2 minutes of grilling, brush the remaining teriyaki sauce over the chicken to glaze it.

  3. 5

    Toast the Sesame Seeds

    In a small skillet, toast the sesame seeds over medium heat for 2-3 minutes until golden brown. Stir frequently.

Serving

  1. 6

    Slice and Serve

    Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes. Slice the chicken, sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds, and serve over cooked rice. Garnish with chopped green onions.
