Okay… so maybe we’re slightly obsessed with bowl food this week.
It’s no secret that we are officially entering the “no maintenance” dinner season. We’re talking firing up the grill and maybe… possibly… whisking together a sauce or two. But that’s our limit. we’ve got sun to soak up, right? So, you’ll be thrilled to know that this is one of those deals.
Whisk some ingredients (like soy, sesame, garlic and ginger) together and let that chicken hang out for a few minutes or overnight. Either way deliciousness ensues. But, don’t worry, it’s still super low maintenance. Whisk, marinate, grill, repeat.
It’s officially BBQ season and low/no maintenance dinner season. Summer is officially here and you are officially covered!!!!
You may be seeing more BBQ recipes around here the next few months as the summer sun is shining on our little slice of England, and we need fully intend to soak up every last little bit of that sun while it’s here. So let’s all get this teriyaki grilled chicken on grill, eat, repeat for the rest of the summer! And the best thing about this grilled teriyaki chicken…
