Easy Teriyaki Chicken

This super quick, super simple chicken teriyaki is a life-saver on a busy weeknight: Only 25 minutes from fridge to table not counting the ten minutes of resting time that is the perfect window to whip up a quick side.  This is great over a salad or rice to soak up the sweet, tangy, salty sauce.  We served it with a side of stir-fried bok choy and Brad loved the leftovers just as much the next day.  Use gluten-free soy sauce to make this gluten-free.

Teriyaki Chicken

Ingredients

  • 1 lb boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 1/4 c soy sauce
  • 2 tbs sake
  • 2 tbs mirin
  • 1 tbs fresh ginger, minced
  • 1 tbs garlic, minced
  • 1 tbs honey
  • 1 tsp olive oil
  • 1 tbs green onion, chopped

Instructions

Place chicken breasts in a plastic produce bag or between two sheets of plastic wrap and, using a rolling pin, pound until flattened to 1/2" thick throughout. Place flattened breasts in a large bowl or baking dish.

Combine soy sauce, sake, mirin, ginger, garlic and honey in a small bowl. Pour over chicken breasts and let sit 10 minutes.

Heat oil in a large pan over medium high heat. Remove chicken from the marinade allowing excess to drip off and place in the pan. Cook until brown and cooked through, about 5 minutes per side.

Remove chicken to a plate and let sit 10 minutes.
