How to Make Pete's Teriyaki Marinade
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, mirin, sake, brown sugar, honey, minced garlic, grated ginger, and sesame oil until the sugar is dissolved.
- Add the meat (shish kebab pieces, steak, or pork chops) to the marinade, ensuring all pieces are evenly coated. Marinate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight in the refrigerator.
- Preheat your grill or broiler to medium-high heat. Baste the meat generously with the marinade during cooking. Cook to your desired level of doneness, using a meat thermometer for accuracy.
- Remove the meat from the grill and let rest for 5-10 minutes before serving. Strain the remaining marinade through a fine-mesh sieve.
- In a small saucepan, bring the strained marinade to a boil over medium heat. Reduce heat and simmer for 2-3 minutes, or until slightly thickened. Serve this delicious teriyaki sauce over rice as a gravy.
- **Optional:** For a spicier kick, add 1-2 finely chopped Thai chilies to the marinade.
