TERIYAKI CHICKEN



Teriyaki Chicken image

I found this on another recipe website...it's really easy, fairly inexpensive (I had all the ingredients at home already) and the leftovers are super! I really hope you enjoy! I serve with Shortcut Sticky Rice, Recipe #105013. The cooking time does not include the marinating time of 2-3 hours. Hint: I made the 2nd batch of marinade right before I cooked the chicken.

Categories     Healthy

Time 45m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1/2 lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut in thin pieces
3/4 cup water
1/2 cup soy sauce
3/4-1 cup brown sugar (I use the 3/4 cup as we don't like ours that sweet)
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/8 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 tablespoon cornstarch
1 tablespoon vegetable oil

Steps:

  • Combine water, soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic and ginger.
  • Whisk to mix well.
  • Marinate chicken in half of sauce 2-3 hours, turning once.
  • Stir cornstarch into remaining sauce and bring to boil over medium-high heat, stirring constantly, until mixture boils and thickens slightly (I did this step right before cooking chicken).
  • Cool this mixture to room temperature.
  • Drain marinade off of chicken, reserving 2 tbsp of the marinade; discard remaining marinade.
  • Stir fry chicken in vegetable oil until chicken in almost done.
  • Stir in reserved 2 tbsp of marinade and continue stir frying until chicken is done and glazed.
  • Serve over hot rice with cooled teriyaki sauce.

Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken: Baby chicken, also known as Cornish game hens, are ideal for this recipe due to their tender meat and small size. Ensure they are fresh and properly cleaned before cooking.
  • Use a good quality teriyaki sauce: The teriyaki sauce is the key ingredient in this dish, so make sure to use a high-quality store-bought or homemade sauce. A good teriyaki sauce should be thick, flavorful, and slightly sweet.
  • Marinate the chicken: Marinating the chicken in the teriyaki sauce for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight, will help infuse it with flavor and make it more tender. You can marinate the chicken in a resealable plastic bag or a covered dish in the refrigerator.
  • Cook the chicken properly: Chicken should be cooked to an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) to ensure it is safe to eat. Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the chicken before removing it from the oven or grill.
  • Serve with your favorite sides: Teriyaki chicken can be served with a variety of sides, such as rice, noodles, roasted vegetables, or a simple salad. You can also drizzle any remaining teriyaki sauce over the chicken and sides for extra flavor.

Conclusion:

Teriyaki baby chicken is an easy and delicious dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With its tender meat, flavorful teriyaki sauce, and crispy skin, it is sure to be a hit at your next dinner party or family gathering. By following these tips and using high-quality ingredients, you can create a restaurant-quality teriyaki baby chicken that will impress your guests and leave them wanting more.
