Grilled Chicken Teriyaki Salad with Grilled Mango. Healthy and delicious!

Originally published Aug 2011.

Today’s recipe made good use of a slightly different version of the teriyaki sauce that was recently featured in our Baked Teriyaki Panko Pork Chops in this delicious salad. The sauce is simply made just a little thicker which will allow it to be repeatedly glazed onto thin strips of chicken on the grill for a very quick, easy and tasty meal.

Pound out boneless chicken breasts to a 1/2 inch thickness, season with salt and pepper and grill over high heat. A couple of minutes before they are fully cooked begin repeatedly brushing the teriyaki glaze over the chicken strips.

For added texture and flavor I added some croutons made from leftover Yogurt Flatbreads. That’s a very versatile and very quick and easy way to make soft delicious flatbread for wraps, curries or dipping up a favourite sauce.

To make the crouton crisps, simply brush the flat bread with garlic butter or garlic oil. Cut into strips and bake for about 10 minutes in a 325 degree F oven or until crispy.

NOTE: I like to debone my own chicken breasts so that I can roast the bones and skins for stock later. I freeze them until I have enough to cover a baking sheet then use the instructions in my post on making Chicken Stock here.

Instructions

To prepare the Teriyaki Glaze

1. In a small saucepan add the oil and garlic.
2. Saute until the garlic is softened but not browned then add the soy sauce, water, honey, brown sugar, five spice powder,sesame oil, rice wine vinegar,ginger and black pepper.
3. Simmer for about 5 minutes before adding a thickening slurry made from dissolving the 1/4 cup cold water and corn starch.
4. Simmer for an additional minute and remove from the stove. Store for up to 2 weeks in a refrigerated, air tight container. Spoon only small amounts at a time into a small bowl in order to brush it on to the grilled chicken in several layers as it cooks, so that you do not contaminate the rest of the glaze for later use. Grill the mango pieces in the last couple of minutes that the chicken is on the grill.
5. Cut the glazed grilled chicken into strips and use it along with the grilled mango with the rest of the salad ingredients to plate individual servings.
