How To Make Grilled Teriyaki Turkey

For this terrific grilled turkey recipe, you need the following ingredients:

• 4 Honeysuckle White turkey breast cutlets approximately 1/2″ thick
• ½ cup light soy sauce
• ½ cup brown sugar
• 1 – 6 ounce can pineapple juice
• 2 Tablespoons olive oil
• 1 Tablespoon ginger juice or freshly grated ginger
• 2 – 3 cloves garlic pressed

Start by making a light marinade.  It keeps the meat moist and tender.  I let the meat marinate for 1-2 hours.  

While the turkey is marinating, you can make a simple Asian Ginger Coleslaw to complement the meat.   (To simplify side dish prep time, a bag of pre-cut coleslaw mix + a bottle of pre-made Asian Coleslaw dressing = more time to enjoy with friends and family.)  Cubes of pineapple round out this simple and delicious meal.

About 20 minutes before serving, preheat your grill to medium-high heat.  Grill the turkey cutlets for approximately 5 minutes on each side until they are thoroughly cooked.

If you like teriyaki sauce, place 3/4 cups of the reserved marinade in a small saucepan and heat over medium-high heat.  Blend  1 tablespoon of cornstarch with 1 tablespoon of cold water.  Mix until there are no lumps.  Add the cornstarch mixture to the heated marinade and stir until thickened.
