List of Ingredients

Serves 2

Est. cooking time: 6 mins


Ingredients:

2 tablespoons teriyaki sauce
1 tablespoon water
2 clove garlic, crushed
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
2 (4 to 6-oz) fresh boneless, skinless chicken breasts, sliced
1/4 teaspoon sesame seeds, toasted




Recipe

Directions:
To prepare the marinade, combine in a small bowl, teriyaki sauce, water, garlic and ginger. Add chicken and toss to coat evenly. Let stand for 20 minutes, turning occasionally; drain.

Thread chicken on skewers. Place on the rack of a broiler pan. Broil 4 to 5-inches from the heat for 3 minutes. Turn the chicken and broil 2 to 3 minutes more, or until chicken is tender and no longer pink*. Sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds.

*Chicken Test for Doneness (per Washington Fryer Commission)

No matter what method you use for cooking chicken, the most accurate test for doneness is a meat thermometer. Since chicken is never ready to be served unless it is done, always be sure it is completely cooked. Whole or bone-in chicken should reach an internal temperature of 180 degrees, and boneless chicken should be cooked to 165°F.
Other indicators for doneness include:
1) A fork or toothpick can be inserted with ease.
2) The juices should be clear, not pink.
3) Bone joints move easily.
