Healthy Teriyaki Chicken on a Stick Recipe
You’ll love how easy this teriyaki chicken on a stick recipe is! After a simple teriyaki marinade, the chicken stripes go onto wooden skewers and bake in the oven. This easy recipe is a go-to for appetizers or a full meal with veggies and rice!
Ingredients
- 1.5 lb chicken breast, boneless, skinless
- 1/2 cup teriyaki sauce, for the marinade
Instructions
- Prepare the chicken by slicing each chicken breast into 1.5-inch or 2-inch strips. You could also use chicken tenders and skip the slicing part.
- Add the chicken pieces into a large bowl and add the teriyaki sauce. Cover with a lid or plastic wrap. Marinade in the fridge for 1 hour if possible, or overnight. The longer you leave the chicken marinade going, the more flavor it will add.
- About 30 minutes before you’d like to cook the chicken, place the bamboo skewers in a shallow dish with water. This step is especially important if you choose to grill your chicken.
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Prepare the chicken by threading the wood skewer (or metal skewers) through each chicken strip. Place chicken on a rimmed baking. Bake for 6-7 minutes, then flip the chicken skewers, and cook another 3-4 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through.
- Serve with peanut sauce or soy sauce with loads of sesame seeds and green onions!
