I find it funny that I am constantly trying new recipes, and yet I find myself so stumped about what to make for dinner. Part of the problem is that I didn't make a meal plan for the week. Had I taken the time to do that, then I wouldn't have been "scrambling" trying to think of something new to do with the chicken that I laid out. Mostly it was I just didn't want another meal of BBQ chicken (as good as it is, I just needed a change!)...so some quick flipping through a cookbook and I came up with a solution for tonight's dinner, as well as some tags for future chicken meals :-) Yay! And yes, I've now made my meal plan for the rest of the week! Anyways, tonight we went with Teriyaki Chicken Burgers. Anyone who knows me is making one of those funny, confused faces right now, just like the one my hubby made when I said what I was making. I don't like teriyaki. Never have. Not really sure why, but I just don't care for it. BUT, he loves teriyaki, so I did it for him :-)
Here is the recipe: (Source: Company's Coming: Barbeques)
Marinade
1/4 cup soya sauce
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon ginger, fresh grated
1 clove garlic, minced
3 Chicken breasts (boneless, skinless)
Pineapple (rings or pieces, whichever you prefer)
Hanburger buns, cut, buttered and toasted on the grill
Lettuce
Tomatoes (if desired)
Mayo (if desired)
Cheese (if desired)
Mix soya sauce, brown sugar, ginger and garlic in a bowl. Using a ziploc bag (or similar) combine chicken and marinade. Marinate for at least 30 minutes (I had time for ours to marinate for about two hours).
Preheat BBQ. Cook chicken on grill over medium heat for about 20 minutes, turning as needed.
Prepare your buns as you desire (lettuce, tomato, mayo, cheese, pineapple).
The chicken can also be used as a main course should you wish to go the no-burger route.
VERDICT:
My hubby was in love with these burgers. He said it was a nice change for burgers and for chicken. He kept saying how good it was. That makes me happy! I am sure he'll be asking to make these again. I was OK with the burgers, it satisifed my need for something different. I didn't add the pineapple to mine, which probably helped. I did add mustard though, that's my favourite condiment. I know, not really a teriyaki flavour but hey, it was my burger!
