Teriyaki Chicken
Teriyaki Chicken features bite-sized pieces of chicken breast coated lightly with flour and pan-fried until golden and crispy, then simmered in a mixture of teriyaki sauce and orange juice. The cooking technique ensures a contrast between a crispy exterior and tender interior, while the sweet-savory sauce adds a bright glaze. Garnishes like green onion and sesame seeds add freshness and texture.
