Ingredients

Servings

For the Chicken

  • 2.5 pounds boneless skinless chicken breast or thighs
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil

For the Teriyaki Glaze

  • 1/2 cup soy sauce
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 2 teaspoons minced garlic 
  • 1 teaspoon minced fresh ginger
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 2 teaspoons cold water

Garnish

  • finely chopped green onions

Instructions

To make the Teriyaki Glaze

  1. In a small pot, add soy sauce, water, brown sugar, rice vinegar, honey, garlic, ginger, and sesame oil.
  2. Combine cold water and cornstarch in a small bowl and mix until it forms a thin paste or slurry. Pour into the pot and stir to incorporate.
  3. Bring to a rolling boil and cook for 1 minute, then reduce heat to low and continue to simmer 3-4 minutes to thicken the teriyaki sauce. Remove the sauce from heat. The sauce will continue to thicken as it cools.

To make the chicken

  1. Heat 1 tablespoon sesame oil in a large skillet over medium high heat.
  2. Cut chicken into 1 inch chunks. Season with garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
  3. Once skillet is hot, add chicken to the skillet. Let sit without stirring 3 minutes, then stir and continue to cook for 2-3 minutes until done (165˚F internal temp.)
  4. Remove chicken from the skillet and toss with teriyaki sauce. Garnish with green onions. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • Optional: If you prefer a completely smooth teriyaki sauce, strain the sauce right after you remove from the heat to catch the bits of garlic and ginger. 
  • If you prefer thicker teriyaki sauce, you can either add more cornstarch in step 2, or simmer the sauce longer in step 3 until you have the desired consistency. Remember the teriyaki sauce does continue to thicken as it cools.
  • Store extra teriyaki sauce in the refrigerator for 7-10 days.
