Ingredients

  • 650 g Chicken breasts Skinless, boneless, cut into chunks
  • 1 tbsp Oil Sesame, vegetable or sunflower
  • 2 Cloves of garlic Peeled and crushed
  • 1 tsp Ginger puree

For the Teriyaki Sauce:

  • 2 tsp Cornflour
  • 100 ml Soy sauce
  • 50 ml Water
  • 3 tbsp Honey
  • 2 tbsp White wine vinegar
  • 0.5 tsp Garlic powder
  • 1 tsp Ginger purée
  • 0.5 tsp Dried chilli flakes Optional

To garnish:

  • Sesame seeds

Instructions

  • Mix the teriyaki sauce ingredients in a small bowl. Begin with the cornflour and gradually add the soy sauce, whisking so there are no lumps. Add the rest of the sauce ingredients.
  • Heat the oil in a frying pan until very hot.
  • Add the chicken and cook for about 10-15 minutes until the chicken is almost cooked through.
  • Add the garlic and ginger and cook for 3 or 4 more minutes until softened.
  • Add the teriyaki sauce ingredients and cook for about 5 minutes until everything is well coated and thickened.
  • While the chicken is cooking, I cook some rice in the bottom of a steamer pan and then add some green vegetables to the steamer part on top for the last 5 minutes. (You can mix the cooked broccoli into the sauce and chicken just before serving if you'd like it coated in sauce.)
