Perfect for fans of Asian-inspired cuisine, this gluten-free, grill-season favorite strikes a perfect balance of health and indulgence.
In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, honey, mirin, grated garlic, grated ginger, and sesame oil to create the teriyaki marinade.
Cut the turkey breast into thin slices or bite-sized chunks and place them in a resealable bag or shallow dish. Pour half of the teriyaki marinade over the turkey, reserving the other half for later use. Seal the bag or cover the dish, then marinate the turkey in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes or up to 2 hours.
While the turkey marinates, clean and trim the mushrooms. Drizzle them with olive oil and lightly season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
Remove the turkey from the marinade and discard any leftover marinade in the bag or dish. Place the turkey slices on the grill and cook for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Remove turkey from the grill and set aside to rest.
Add the mushrooms to the grill and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until tender and slightly charred. Remove from the grill and set aside.
In a small saucepan over medium heat, bring the reserved teriyaki marinade to a simmer. Cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring frequently, until the sauce thickens slightly.
Plate the grilled turkey and mushrooms, and drizzle with the thickened teriyaki sauce. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and sliced green onions for garnish.
Serve warm with steamed rice if desired.
