Teriyaki Chicken Marinade

Step 1

Place the chicken breasts in a large ziplock bag. In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, garlic, ginger, brown sugar, and sesame oil.

Step 2

Pour the marinade over the chicken and seal the bag, squeezing out all the air.

Step 3

Move the chicken around in the marinade until it is all evenly coated.

Step 4

Refrigerate and let it marinate for at least 30 minutes and up to 24 hours (see note).

Step 5

You can freeze the chicken in the marinade immediately and let it marinate as it defrosts, or marinate and cook it immediately.

Step 6

Either grill the chicken for 6-8 per side, pan fry for 6-8 minutes per side over medium heat, or bake at 375 degrees F for 20-30 minutes, or until an internal temperature of 165 degrees F has been reached.

Step 7

Let the chicken rest, tented with foil, for 5 minutes before serving.
