    Preparation Steps

    1

    Slice the chicken breasts in half lengthwise to create thinner cutlets. In a bowl, whisk together the olive oil, garlic powder, grated ginger, salt, and pepper. Marinate the chicken cutlets in the mixture for at least 15 minutes.

    2

    Heat a skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Cook the chicken cutlets for 4-5 minutes per side, until they have nice grill marks and are cooked through.

    3

    During the last minute of cooking, brush the chicken breasts with teriyaki sauce, allowing it to caramelize on the grill.

    4

    Place a slice of cheddar cheese on top of each chicken breast, then cover the skillet or grill to allow the cheese to melt.

    5

    Meanwhile, halve the burger buns and toast them in a dry skillet or with a little olive oil until golden brown on the inside.

    6

    Prepare the vegetables: slice the tomato and red onion into thin rings.

    7

    Spread a little mayonnaise on the inside of the toasted buns for a smoother taste.

    8

    Assemble the burger: place a lettuce leaf on the bottom bun, followed by the teriyaki glazed chicken breast, tomato, and red onion. Sprinkle with sesame seeds, then top with the upper bun.

    9

    Serve immediately, preferably with French fries or a fresh cucumber salad. Tip: For an extra intense flavor, make your own homemade teriyaki sauce from soy sauce, honey, and ginger!
