Teriyaki Sauce INSTRUCTIONS
The secret technique to Island teriyaki is to marinate for a long time, at least overnight and sometimes for days. Do NOT marinate chicken breasts in teriyaki sauce--they get a really horrible texture. Thighs, drumsticks, wings are okay. Other meats seem to be fine. Beef and pork should be sliced first so the marinade really penetrates. The teriyaki sauce recipe is done...enjoy !

Effortless Homemade Teriyaki Sauce

Alright everyone, have you ever prepared homemade teriyaki sauce? Well, you are about to embark on that journey. It is incredibly simple, tastes fantastic, and will leave you questioning why you ever purchased it from a store. It is an excellent sauce to prepare on a weekend and incorporate into your meals throughout the week to enhance your weeknight dinner experience. I typically make a double or triple batch and then utilize it in various recipes during the week. It can serve as a marinade or a straightforward sauce, and it is an essential addition to your culinary skills (we particularly enjoy it on this Delicious Teriyaki Salmon!

What You Will Require

water: this serves as the foundation of the liquid/sauce.

sesame oil: I adore the flavor this contributes – a small amount goes a long way!

brown sugar + honey: both of these ingredients provide that signature sweetness characteristic of teriyaki sauce. You may substitute coconut sugar for brown sugar if that is your preference.

soy sauce: a traditional ingredient in teriyaki sauce – you can opt for a gluten-free alternative here (such as coconut aminos, etc.).

garlic + fresh ginger: these ingredients impart a significant burst of flavor!

Slurry: mix some water and cornstarch to create a classic slurry, which will then be added as our thickening agent to the liquid.

Notes

Flavor: if you want a stronger-tasting sauce simply add an additional tablespoon of brown sugar or another tablespoon of soy sauce. You do want a fairly strong sauce, as it will mellow out once it is on your main dish.

Storage: store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
