Barbecued Teriyaki Chicken


I've been making this chicken for my family for more than 20 years.  Everyone in the family always likes this meal.  You can use bone-in or boneless chicken or salmon if you prefer.  The chicken takes longer to marinade, about 4 hours, but the salmon takes only about an hour.  

Ingredients


6 chicken breasts, bone-in or boneless
3/4 cup soy sauce
1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
2 tablespoons canola oil
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

Method


Put chicken breasts in a large zip-style storage bag, laying flat.  Mix soy sauce, brown sugar, canola oil, ginger and garlic powder together well.  Pour the mixture into the storage bag making sure it coats the chicken.  Refrigerate for 4 hours, flipping several times to ensure an even coating of marinade.  

Preheat barbecue to medium and grill the chicken (boneless 10 minutes per side, bone-in about 12 minutes per side) until cooked through. 

If you're using salmon, cook about 10 minutes per 1 inch of thickness.  Turn and baste with sauce often.  

Serves 6.
