teriyaki chicken
Sweet soy bird
Teriyaki chicken is chicken prepared in the Japanese style with a sweet, glossy sauce made from soy sauce, mirin, and sugar.
The meat is typically grilled or pan-fried while the sauce caramelizes.
A staple of Japanese-American cuisine, it appears in bento boxes, rice bowls, and as a protein option at fast-casual restaurants: I'll have the teriyaki chicken with extra sauce.
