Teriyaki Chicken

Teriyaki Chicken is a flavorful and tender dish featuring marinated chicken glazed with a sweet and savory teriyaki sauce. This Kosher version offers a delightful taste of Japan while adhering to dietary laws.

Ingredients

• Chicken breast - 300 grams
• Soy sauce (kosher) - 60 ml
• Mirin (kosher) - 30 ml
• Brown sugar - 15 grams
• Garlic (minced) - 1 clove
• Ginger (grated) - 1 teaspoon
• Sesame oil - 1 tablespoon
• Cornstarch - 1 teaspoon
• Water - 60 ml
• Sesame seeds - 1 tablespoon
• Green onion (chopped) - 2 tablespoons
• Cooked white rice - 200 grams (for serving)

Steps

1. In a mixing bowl, combine soy sauce, mirin, brown sugar, garlic, ginger, and sesame oil to create the marinade.
2. Cut the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and add it to the marinade. Cover and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes.
3. In a small saucepan, combine the remaining marinade, cornstarch, and water. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring until the sauce thickens. Remove from heat and set aside.
4. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated chicken (discard the used marinade) and cook for about 5-7 minutes until cooked through and browned on all sides.
5. Pour the thickened teriyaki sauce over the chicken and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, stirring to coat the chicken evenly.
6. Serve the teriyaki chicken over cooked white rice, garnished with sesame seeds and chopped green onions.
