Grilled Teriyaki BBQ Chicken
Description
This recipe starts by mixing barbecue sauce with teriyaki sauce and garlic salt to create a flavorful marinade, which the chicken breasts soak up for at least four hours or overnight in the refrigerator. This marinating time lets the chicken absorb the combined sweet and savory notes characteristic of both sauces.
Grilling on medium-high heat cooks the chicken thoroughly, taking 7 to 10 minutes per side until it reaches the safe internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit. The direct heat produces a caramelized exterior, while the marinade keeps the meat moist and flavorful. Allowing the chicken to rest for five minutes post-grill helps retain juices before slicing.
For an alternative method, the chicken can be baked uncovered in a 9x13 pan at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 25-30 minutes until cooked through, offering a convenient indoor preparation option when grilling is unavailable.
