This is the well-known teriyaki chicken. At MOS Burger, the teriyaki chicken burger uses chicken marinated in sauce and roasted. Background of this recipe: I used to work at MOS, but since there isn’t one near my home now, I decided to make it myself.

Steps

1

Trim any tendons from the chicken.
2

Score the chicken to help it cook evenly.
3

Place the chicken skin-side down in a pan and sear until browned.
4

Add all the seasonings over medium heat. Spoon the sauce over the chicken repeatedly until the sauce thickens and the chicken is cooked through.
5

For extra flavor, use a kitchen torch to add a bit more char to the surface. A butane kitchen torch costs less than $20 and is highly recommended.

By the way, MOS Burger uses 30 grams of lettuce for their teriyaki burger and 15 grams for their teriyaki chicken burger.
