Ingredients

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, combine soy sauce, honey, garlic, ginger, rice vinegar, and sesame oil. Mix well until the honey is fully dissolved.

  2. Place the chicken pieces in a shallow dish or a resealable plastic bag. Pour half of the teriyaki sauce over the chicken, reserving the other half for later. Make sure the chicken is evenly coated with the sauce. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, but longer for more flavor.

  3. In a small bowl, mix cornstarch and water to create a slurry. This will help thicken the sauce later on.

  4. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and add a bit of oil. Once hot, remove the chicken from the marinade and shake off any excess sauce before adding it to the skillet. Discard the used marinade.

  5. Cook the chicken until golden brown and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes per side, depending on the size of the chicken pieces.

  6. Once the chicken is cooked, pour in the reserved teriyaki sauce and the cornstarch slurry. Stir well to combine and let the sauce simmer and thicken, about 2-3 minutes.

  7. Remove the skillet from the heat and let the chicken sit for a few minutes to absorb the flavors.

  8. Serve the teriyaki chicken over a bed of steamed white rice. Drizzle extra sauce over the chicken and garnish with sesame seeds and sliced green onions for a pop of freshness.
