Calories: 445kcal
Ingredients
- 1 pound Boneless Skinless Chicken Tenders
- 1 Tablespoon Olive Oil
- ¼ teaspoon Salt
- ½ teaspoon Black Pepper
- For the Teriyaki Sauce:
- ¼ cup Brown Sugar
- ½ cup Low Sodium Soy Sauce
- ¼ cup Rice Vinegar
- ¼ cup Honey
- 2 teaspoons Minced Garlic
- ½ teaspoon Ground Ginger
- 1 Tablespoon Cornstarch
For the Toppings:
- 2 Tablespoons Sesame Seeds
- 2 Stalks Green Onions diced
Instructions
- Preheat your grill over medium high heat to approximately 350 degrees F. Spray the grill grates with a non-stick cooking spray or rub with oil to prevent the chicken from sticking to the grates.
- Place the chicken on the grill on top of the oil. Season it with salt and pepper. Cook the chicken for 4-6 minutes per side until the chicken is almost cooked through (internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit).
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the sauce ingredients. Brush this mixture onto the chicken tenders on the grill.
- Then cook for 1 more minute until the chicken is browned and the sauce is caramelized.
- Remove, let sit for 5 minutes. Then serve topped with the sesame seed and diced green onions. Enjoy!
Notes
Refrigerate the leftovers in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
We use an instant-read meat thermometer to make sure that the chicken is cooked to a safe temperature.
