I definitely prefer making my own teriyaki sauce than to purchase it in supermarkets. It is so convenient and easy and also much healthier. I find the seasonings to be too heavy in the ones sold outside. And you also have the flexibility to tweak the sauce, making it saltier or less salty, up to your taste buds!
Teriyaki Chicken
Serves 2
Ingredients
2 chicken boneless thighs
1 onion
Teriyaki sauce
1 tbsp of light soy sauce: 1 tbsp of mirin : 1 tbsp of sake
(Ratio 1:1:1)
Method
1) Marinate the chicken thighs with the teriyaki sauce overnight
2) Oil the pan and turn to medium high fire. Put the chicken thighs skin down (set aside the teriyaki sauce for use later) and pan fry till they turned golden brown. (Around 3- 4 min) Keep a close watch as they get burnt easily with the teriyaki sauce.
3) Flip to the other side and add in the onion. Close the lid and let it cook for about 5 min.
4) After 5 min, the chicken thighs should be fully cooked, juicy and tender ( mine is...). Take out the chicken thighs, leaving only the onions in the pan.
5) Pour the teriyaki sauce (set aside from step 2) into the pan and cook till the sauce becomes thicker.(You can also add in a few slices of gingers to make it more fragrant, I didn't because a bit lazy to cut..heee)
6) You can pour the teriyaki sauce either on the chicken thighs or on your rice.
Easy, isn't it?
