Seattle Teriyaki Chicken.

Updated: Sep 17, 2024

Should be served with white rice, and two scoops of Mac Salad or an iceberg salad with sesame ginger dressing. What makes it different from Japanese Teriyaki. Japanese Teriyaki is usually salmon or fish. Chicken is usually yakitori. What's the difference in the sauce? Garlic and Ginger are the difference!


Why it works:

This is as simple easy as it comes.

Yield: 2 portions

Time: 30 minutes

Pairing: It's a full lunch.

Tasting Notes: Killer, the timing on the chicken was right on. This was done on a gas grill, I'd like to use a charcoal with apple wood essence next time. Or just straight up kingsford charcoal.
