Teriyaki chicken, a beloved Japanese dish, features tender chicken glazed with a sweet and savory sauce. Here’s a simple yet delicious recipe to recreate it at home.
Ingredients: 2 boneless chicken breasts, ¼ cup soy sauce, 2 tbsp sugar, 2 tbsp mirin (Japanese sweet rice wine), 1 tbsp sake (optional), 1 tsp minced ginger, 1 clove garlic (minced), 1 tsp sesame oil, and green onions for garnish.
Steps:
1. Prepare the chicken: Pat the chicken dry and lightly score the surface to help the glaze adhere. Season with salt and pepper.
2. Make the teriyaki sauce: In a small bowl, mix soy sauce, sugar, mirin, sake, ginger, and garlic. Heat gently in a pan until the sugar dissolves; set aside.
3. Cook the chicken: Heat sesame oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the chicken for 5–6 minutes per side until golden and cooked through.
4. Glaze the chicken: Pour the teriyaki sauce over the chicken. Reduce heat to medium, simmer for 2–3 minutes, flipping occasionally until the sauce thickens and coats the chicken.
5. Serve: Garnish with chopped green onions. Serve with steamed rice or vegetables.
Tips: For extra flavor, marinate the chicken in the sauce for 30 minutes before cooking. Adjust sugar or soy sauce to your preferred balance of sweet and salty. Enjoy your homemade teriyaki chicken!
