Easy Teriyaki Marinade and Sauce image

This is an Americanized version of a popular sauce, made from ingredients that most cooks have on hand. Use this sauce as a marinade for chicken wings, prawns, or your favorite meat. Thicken the sauce with cornstarch and it is great with veggie stir-fry or as a basting sauce. Try it with #519728 Teriyaki Stir Fry. http://www.food.com/recipe/teriyaki-stir-fry-519728

Time 7m

Yield 1 cup

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/2 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon powdered ginger
2 tablespoons cornstarch (optional)
1/2 cup soy sauce
1/2 cup cold water
1 tablespoon vinegar

Steps:

  • In a saucepan, combine the dry ingredients. Include the cornstarch if you want a sauce to add to your stir-fry or if you want a basting sauce. For a marinade, leave out the cornstarch.
  • Add soy sauce, water, and vinegar.
  • Stir or whisk until all ingredients are thoroughly mixed.
  • Set the saucepan on medium heat and bring to a boil. For a marinade, let cool and pour over meat. For stir-fry or basting, boil for one minute or until thickened.
  • If using as a marinade, place meat in a shallow container and pour the sauce over all. Cover and refrigerate, turning meat occasionally. Marinate prawns for no more than 30 minutes, chicken or beef 4-8 hours.
  • Unused sauce can be stored indefinitely in the refrigerator. Discard any leftover marinade, as the meat juices in it will spoil.
