Easy Teriyaki Chicken Recipe

 

Teriyaki sauce is a basic Japanese sauce you need to learn how to make as it’s really easy ! You can use the sauce to marinate, to cook, or to season with meat, fish, tofu, and vegetables. Remember the ratio of key ingredients when making teriyaki sauce, then simply adjust the flavour by adding honey or maple syrup to create your own version. Today’s teriyaki chicken only took me about 15 minutes to make it, how simple, isn’t it ?

-Use equal part of soy sauce, mirin, and sake. (1:1:1)⁠
This is the basic formula for making teriyaki blend, you can also choose to add sugar, honey, crushed garlic or ginger to produce your own flavour.⁠ I also added 1 tsp sugar here.
