How to Make Hawaiian Teriyaki Marinade

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, brown sugar, pineapple juice, honey, rice vinegar, ginger, garlic, and cornstarch until the sugar and cornstarch are dissolved.
  2. Add the meat (beef, chicken, or pork - approximately 1-2 lbs) to a resealable bag or shallow dish.
  3. Pour the marinade over the meat, ensuring it's fully coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish.
  4. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, for maximum flavor.
  5. Preheat your grill, oven, or pan to the desired temperature. Remove the meat from the marinade and discard the marinade.
  6. Cook the meat to your desired doneness. For steak, aim for medium-rare to medium for optimal tenderness.
  7. Let the meat rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy your taste of Hawaii!
