How to Make Teriyaki Sauce For Chicken
- In a medium saucepan, combine 1/2 cup honey, 1/3 cup water, 1/2 cup tamari (or soy sauce), 1/4 cup rice vinegar, and 1/2 cup finely chopped onion.
- Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat.
- In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons cornstarch and 1/3 cup cold water until smooth and no lumps remain.
- Gradually whisk the cornstarch slurry into the simmering teriyaki sauce.
- Continue to stir constantly until the sauce thickens to your desired consistency (about 1-2 minutes).
- Reduce heat to low and simmer for 7-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, to allow the flavors to meld.
- Remove from heat and let the sauce cool completely.
- Add 4-6 cloves of minced garlic (optional). Stir to combine.
- Marinate your chicken in the sauce for at least 5 hours, or preferably overnight in the refrigerator for maximum flavor.
- Grill or bake the chicken according to your preference. Baste with extra sauce during cooking for an extra-delicious glaze.
