CHICKEN TERIYAKI
Teriyaki is derived from the Japanese root words teri, to shine, and yaki, to broil or grill. That's the way traditional teriyaki looks: shiny and incised with grill marks. In Japan, teriyaki is a mix of soy sauce, sake and the rice wine mirin, which imparts a subtle sweetness. The teriyaki found throughout Seattle, of which this is an adaptation, is a bit more showy. Cooks sweeten with white sugar and pineapple juice. They thicken with cornstarch. Ginger and garlic go into the mix because of the Korean ancestry of many cooks. It is not at all traditional, but it is simple to prepare and addictive to eat. Be sure to plan ahead as you do need to marinate the chicken before cooking. An overnight stay in the fridge is ideal, but many readers have been happy with a quick marinade of an hour or so.

Steps:
- In a small saucepan, combine all ingredients except cornstarch and chicken. Bring to boil over high heat. Reduce heat to low and stir until sugar is dissolved, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool. Discard cinnamon stick and mix in 1/2 cup water.
- Place chicken in a heavy-duty sealable plastic bag. Add soy sauce mixture, seal bag, and turn to coat chicken. Refrigerate for at least an hour, ideally overnight.
- Remove chicken and set aside. Pour mixture into a small saucepan. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to low. Mix cornstarch with 2 tablespoons water and add to pan. Stir until mixture begins to thicken, and gradually stir in enough water (about 1/2 cup) until sauce is the consistency of heavy cream. Remove from heat and set aside.
- Preheat a broiler or grill. Lightly brush chicken pieces on all sides with sauce, and broil or grill about 3 minutes per side. While chicken is cooking, place sauce over high heat and bring to a boil, then reduce heat to a bare simmer, adding water a bit at a time to keep mixture at a pourable consistency. To serve, slice chicken into strips, arrange on plates, and drizzle with sauce.

TERIYAKI BEEF OR CHICKEN RICE BOWL
My humteenth recipe for a rice bowl. I can't help myself. Note: An alternative method would be to marinate the rib eye steak or chicken breasts whole and then grill it. Slice it thinly before serving it on the rice with more of the cooked and thickened teriyaki sauce. The version below is similar to the teriyaki bowls which are familiar to most Americans.

Number Of Ingredients 13
Steps:
- Combine all marinade ingredients in large resealable plastic food bag. Reserve 2 tablespoons marinade; set aside. Add chicken pieces. Tightly seal bag. Turn bag several times to coat chicken well. Place in 13x9-inch pan. Refrigerate, turning occasionally, at least 3 hours or overnight.
- Heat 1 side of gas grill on medium or charcoal grill until coals are ash white. Remove chicken from marinade with slotted spoon; discard marinade.
- To assemble kabobs, alternately thread chicken, pineapple, tomatoes, green pepper and zucchini onto skewers.
- Place kabobs onto grill. Grill, turning and brushing occasionally with reserved marinade, until chicken reaches at least 170°F or until juices run clear when pierced with fork (15 to 20 minutes).
Tips:
- Use a good quality soy sauce. A good soy sauce will have a rich, complex flavor that will enhance the other ingredients in the dish. Look for a soy sauce that is naturally brewed and has a deep, amber color.
- Use fresh ginger and garlic. Fresh ginger and garlic will add a bright, pungent flavor to the dish. If you don't have fresh ginger or garlic, you can use ground ginger or garlic powder, but the flavor will be less intense.
- Don't overcook the chicken. Chicken is a lean protein that can easily become dry and tough if it is overcooked. Cook the chicken until it is just cooked through, about 7-8 minutes per side.
- Make sure the sauce is thick and glossy. The sauce should be thick enough to coat the chicken and vegetables, but not so thick that it is gloppy. If the sauce is too thin, you can simmer it for a few minutes to reduce it. If the sauce is too thick, you can add a little water or chicken broth.
- Serve the chicken teriyaki with rice or noodles. Chicken teriyaki is a versatile dish that can be served with a variety of sides. Rice is a classic choice, but you can also serve it with noodles, vegetables, or even mashed potatoes.
Conclusion:
Chicken teriyaki is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a flavorful and satisfying meal that the whole family will enjoy. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy dinner idea, give chicken teriyaki a try. You won't be disappointed!
