Teriyaki chicken, beef, and seafood are popular quick serve and casual restaurant items. Soy sauce is a major ingredients that is high in sodium. So, most teriyaki style foods are high sodium foods.

Foods served teriyaki style can also be high in sugar. This Japanese style teriyaki marinade and sauce obtains most of its sweetness from mirin a Japanese rice wine like saki with less alcohol and added sugar.

Saki, Japanese rice wine, is available in most stores where liquor is sold. Like cooking with any wine, buy a good quality saki. If it is good enough to drink, it is good enough for cooking.

Teriyaki marinade can be stored in the refrigerator for up to one month. Teriyaki sauce should be used the same day.

Cook’s Tip

When using this recipe for both a marinade and sauce use 1/4 to 1/3 cup to marinade your meat reserving the rest to thicken for the sauce. Reduce cornstarch by 1/4 to 1/3 teaspoon unless you like a very thick sauce.
