1 tablespoon cornstarch, 50 g mirin, 40 g dark soy sauce, 50 g sake, 25 g granulated sugar
Heat a wok over high heat, then sauté the garlic and ginger for 2 minutes.
1 clove minced garlic, 1 teaspoon minced ginger
Add the chicken.
300 g chicken, cut into pieces
Cook over medium-high heat until the chicken is cooked through, then add the sauce.
Stir constantly until the sauce reaches your desired thickness.
Notes
Before adding the chicken, make sure the oil is really hot so you can get a great sear. Your teriyaki chicken will be all the better.If you like, add a touch of brightness by stirring in a little rice vinegar (the sushi kind). I enjoy that now and then.
