Teriyaki Chicken

Teriyaki Chicken is the perfect dish to showcase the tangy yet sweet notes of the flavorful marinade. When you lead a busy life but don't want to compromise on flavor, this recipe is a lifesaver. Marinate the chicken before you start your day and grill it up for a quick gourmet dinner when you get home. The added touch of grilled pineapple brings a refreshing twist that complements the savory chicken beautifully. This dish holds a special place in my heart because it’s not just gluten-free, it's also family-approved. My kids love it when chicken turns into a fun, fruity feast, and I love it because it’s hassle-free yet feels like a special meal.

Ingredients

  

• 4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves
• ½ cup soy sauce make sure it’s GF, I used La Choy
• ½ cup cooking oil
• ½ cup orange juice
• 2 teaspoons honey
• 1 teaspoon ground ginger
• 1 clove garlic minced
• 4 pineapple rings fresh or canned

Instructions

 

• Place chicken in a shallow dish or resealable plastic bag.
• Combine marinate ingredients in a small bowl.
• Pour marinade over chicken.
• Marinate chicken for several hours or overnight.
• Remove chicken from marinate. Discard any remaining marinade.
• Grill chicken over medium heat 5 to 7 minutes per side or until chicken is cooked through.
• Grill the pineapple rings 2-3 minutes per side.
• Place one pineapple slice on each chicken breast to serve.

Notes

Make sure to choose a gluten-free soy sauce to keep the dish safe for gluten-intolerant guests.

If you’re in a hurry, you can marinate the chicken for just an hour, but overnight marination will yield the most flavorful result.

FAQs:

Can I bake instead of grilling?

Yes, bake at 400°F for 20-25 minutes or until cooked through.
