FAQ

Does teriyaki burn on grill?

The sugars in the sauce will cause the outside of the chicken to burn if applied while grilling, so use the reserved teriyaki sauce (the portion that shouldn’t have come into contact with the raw chicken) to coat the chicken after it has been taken off the grill.

Can I use teriyaki sauce as a marinade?

Think teriyaki chicken, salmon, and shrimp! You can use it as a marinade, stir-fry sauce, or glaze for meats and seafood. The sauce keeps in the refrigerator for weeks. Make one batch today and have delectable teriyaki sauce on hand for dinner another day.

What seasonings go with teriyaki?

Chicken breasts, dried oregano, cayenne pepper, paprika, salt, garlic salt, chili powder, onion powder, corn starch, oregano leaves, cumin, lean ground beef, onion powder, water, and garlic powder are some of the ingredients.
