Recently we decided we were in a rut and I HAD to come up with a decent substitute for chicken teriyaki. So Cindy McCain style (the cookie debacle), I had my assistant (that would be me) do an internet search, pull a recipe off the internet, modify it slightly, and now I'm calling it my own.
1/4 c. low sodium soy sauce
1/4 c. packed brown sugar
1/4 t. curry powder
1/2 t. red pepper flakes
Juice of 1 lime along with lime zest
8 skinless boneless chicken thighs
Combine first 5 ingredients and pour over chicken thighs placed in a zip-lock bag. Marinate at least 4 hours, then grill. Drain marinade into saucepan and boil for at least a minute. Use this sauce to baste the chicken while grilling. We also grill pineapple slices to serve with the chicken and rice.
We like this recipe better than the Chicken Teriyaki carryout (which is a good thing since we haven't found a place here). I think it's a little spicier than the average teriyaki due to the red pepper flakes, but we're hooked!
Here's a little bit more spice from around the island.
