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.

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.
