If you have ever reached into your pantry to find that you are out of teriyaki sauce or teriyaki glaze – don’t stress… just make your own.
My homemade teriyaki sauce is quick, easy and delicious. You can put it together in less than 10 minutes. With the addition of a tablespoon of corn starch you can turn the teriyaki sauce into a teriyaki glaze that is perfect on fish, chicken, pork and so much more.
The best part is that you can pronounce all of the ingredients. I think once you try this recipe you bypass the expensive bottles at the store.
Try this recipe on my Bacon Wrapped Teriyaki Chicken with Pineapple. The combination is wonderful.
