Loaded with sweet and tangy teriyaki flavor, this Grilled Teriyaki Chicken is my families new favorite way to enjoy grilling in the summertime. Everyone of my kids gobbled it up like it was sweet dream pie. Or sweet dream chicken, actually. Which is what it is, my friends. Sweet Dream Chicken. Tender, juicy and oh so fabulous. We ate it a few weeks ago, for the first time, over a bed of warm white rice, which was fantastic. I made it again a couple of days ago, sliced the chicken up and added it to an asian style green salad and drizzled a Sweet Teriyaki Vinaigrette over the top. Sound kind of weird? It wasn’t. It was the bomb, baby. Truly. Recipe for the dressing and salad coming up tomorrow.
Until then…make this chicken, gang. It’s sure to please.

I just made this for Alan, and he said it was the best Teriyaki chicken he’s ever had!!!
Bonny,
So happy to hear it! Thanks for letting me know. 🙂

hi Jamie , in this recipe do you tenderize the chicken so that it cooks faster ? its just in the picture the chicken looks thinner than a usual chicken thigh, thanks.
Hi Molly,
No need to tenderize the thighs. They will cook up nicely on their own.
All the best,

How or where can I get the nutritional count (calories, carbs, sugars, etc) for this or any of your recipes? Thanks
Jamie,
This recipe looks great, but doesn’t say whether the chicken thighs are bone-in or boneless, or an approximate length of time they should be cooked. I’m guessing from the shape that they’re boneless, but would appreciate knowing for sure so that I can try them over Memorial Day weekend. Thanks much!

Hi Diane,
Thanks for your comment. I used boneless chicken thighs. I cooked them for about 10 minutes per side.
Best of luck to you!

Jamie, Can boneless chicken breasts or tenders be substituted for the boneless thighs? Thanks!
Hi Valerie,
Thanks for your question. Tenders would work out well, but I’m afraid chicken breasts would be too dry.
Best of luck!

Jamie, why does your chicken have grill marks when you put foil on the grill ? It will burn, won’t it, if you put the chicken directly on grill ?? Just wondering.

Is boneless meat compulsory? It is so nice to hear the recipe. Now it’s a matter of watching how much it feels like eating after making it.
I haven’t try this teriyaki recipe. So I’m excited to try it. Thanks for your lovely recipe.
