I tried this for dinner with the family. They really enjoyed it. My daughter, who hates burgers, ate the whole thing. I used some Kikoman's teriyaki Baste & Glaze that I had on hand instead of making my own. I served them on potato buns with some lettuce and a sauce I made. I mixed 3 tablespoons of mayo, 1 teaspoon of the teriyaki glaze, and 1 teaspoon of ketchup (nix the garnish). It was yummy. I am absolutely going to make these again. Great AND easy recipe.

I thought these were delicious!!! I did make some changes: I used 1/4 cup brown sugar, I noticed I was out of soy sauce at the last minute so I substituted Braggs liquid aminos, I had to use red wine vinegar and the sesame oil was the spicy kind. As far as my roommate and I are concerned they turned out perfect! Thank you, this is going in my 'Six Stars' cookbook!

I tagged these and was really excited because I have been looking for recipes to use ground chicken. We liked the burgers themselves, but were not that fond of the sauce. If I was to make it again, I would use less rice vinegar and more soy. I used 1/4 cup of brown sugar and found it was just sweet enough. Thanks for sharing!
