Easy Teriyaki Sauce Recipe

How to make Japanese style pizza from scratch!

Japanese Teriyaki Chicken Mayo Pizza (てりやきピザ)

Strong flour

Weak flour

Salt

Dry yeast

milliliters Luke warm water

Chicken thigh

tbsp Soy sauce

tbsp Sake

Sugar

tsp Mirin

tsp Ginger paste

Garlic paste

White onion

tbsp Mayonnaise

Cheese

Sweet corn (Optional)

Nori seaweed (Optional)

In a big bowl, sift in 90g of strong flour and 20 grams of weak flour. Add a pinch of salt and mix.

Pour 60ml of lukewarm water into a container and add 1.5g of dry yeast, mix until the yeast is dissolved. (Don't use water hotter than 138°f or 60°c, it will kill the yeast)

Allow the yeast to rest for 5 minutes, it should be a bit frothy. (If it's not, you might need to buy new yeast.)

In the bowl of flour, make a well and pour the yeast water in little by little, mixing in between each pour. The dough should be a bit sticky. If the mixture is too wet you can add more flour, if it's too dry add a little bit more water.

Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface until smooth. (Try not to put too much flour on the surface, otherwise the dough might become dry and crumbly)

Put the smooth dough into a lightly greased bowl cover the bowl with cling film or a damp tea towel. Rest at room temperature for about 3 hours to rise. (Needs extra time in winter)

After three hours, your dough will have risen (hopefully!). Punch out the air and rest for another 30 minutes in a bowl.

During this 30 minutes we can prepare the topping.

Making the dough from scratch

Cut 100g of chicken thigh into small bite-size pieces.

In a small bowl, add 2 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tbsp sake, 1 tsp sugar, 2 tsp mirin, 1/2 tsp ginger paste and 1/2 tsp garlic paste, then mix.

Heat up a frying pan on a medium high heat. Add a little flavourless oil and fry the chicken and onions together until the chicken is browned and the onions are softened.

Add the sauce you mixed earlier to the frying pan.

Cook until the sauce becomes thicker and a bit sticky.

Once it's cooled down, take the chicken out of the pan and cut it even smaller.

Teriyaki Chicken

Now, roll out your dough. You can stretch it by hand or use a rolling pin to roll it out on a lightly floured surface.

Spoon the teriyaki sauce left in the pan over the rolled out pizza dough. You can add the onions too.

Sprinkle about 30g of grated cheese over the sauce.

Next add your chicken. (You can also add sweetcorn here too)

Bake for about 20 minutes on the middle shelf. (Keep an eye on it to make sure it is not burning)

Take it out and sprinkle with finely cut nori seaweed at the end.

Assemble and Cook the Pizza

This Homemade Teriyaki Sauce recipe is one of the easiest sauces to make and is a must if you love Asian cuisine. Use it in stir fry, as a marinade, or a dipping sauce.

Homemade Teriyaki Sauce

soy sauce

brown sugar

sugar

Mirin ((see note))

sesame oil

garlic (, grated or minced)

In a small bowl, whisk together the water with the cornstarch until smooth, to create a slurry.

In a small saucepan, combine all the ingredients (including the cornstarch slurry.) Bring to a boil, stirring it occasionally to prevent overflow and scorching. Then reduce heat to a gentle simmer for about 4 minutes until the sauce has thickened.

Remove the sauce from the heat and allow to cool. Use as desired.

(If using as a marinade omit the cornstarch and let the sauce cool completely before using. If not using right away, allow to cool, then transfer to a jar, fasten the lid and store in the fridge. It will keep for 1 week.)

How to make delicious Teriyaki Chicken Donburi. Juicy pan fried chicken thigh cooked in a sweet teriyaki sauce with a garlic kick served on a bed of fluffy, Japanese style white rice then topped with chopped green onion and a soft boiled egg.

Garlic Teriyaki Chicken Donburi (照り焼き丼)

Eggs

salt and pepper

tbsp oil

⅓ (40 grams) Spring onion (scallion)

Bowls of Cooked Rice

Honey

Garlic paste (or garlic

tbsp Chopped spring onion

Nori

Chili threads

Fill a small pan with water and bring to a boil.

Once boiling, turn down the heat to a simmer so that it's not bubbling too much when you add the egg.

Add the eggs to the pan, turn up the heat and set a timer for 6 minutes.

Once 6 minutes have passed, transfer the eggs straight to the ice cold water to stop the cooking process.

Soft Boiled Egg

Sprinkle the chicken thigh with salt and pepper on both sides.

Once the pan is hot, add 1 tbsp oil and place the chicken thigh skin face down.

Once the skin is browned and crispy, flip the chicken over and cover with a lid. Cook for 3 minutes.

Cut the spring onion into diagonal pieces. (about 1 inch or 2 cm pieces.)

Once 3 minutes is up, remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.

Add the spring onion to the pan and fry in the chicken juices for a few minutes until softened slightly.

Put the chicken back in the pan and add 2 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tbsp sake, 1 tsp mirin, 1 tsp sugar, 1 tbsp honey and 1 tsp garlic paste.

Move the chicken around the pan so that the sauce covers the surface, cook until the sauce is thick and like a syrup.

Fill two bowls with rice, make sure to leave enough space for chicken.

Place the chicken and spring onion on top of the rice, make sure to drizzle any excess teriyaki sauce over the top.

Drizzle with mayonnaise, sprinkle with chopped spring onion and/or nori.

Cut the soft boiled eggs in half and place two halves in the centre of each bowl. (I make a nest with chopped spring onion to stop it from rolling.) Add chili threads / chili flakes for decoration and a spicy kick!

The best Teriyaki Sauce recipe that’s easy to make, uses pantry ingredients, and ready in minutes. You’ll never buy store bought again!

An easy homemade teriyaki sauce recipe made from pantry staples. This sauce is bold and thick and is great as a marinade or as a sauce served with your favorite meats or vegetables.

Homemade Teriyaki Sauce Recipe

(8 oz) water

(67 g) packed light brown sugar

(2 oz) low sodium soy sauce

honey

garlic, minced

(2 oz) cold water

Combine the 1 cup water, brown sugar, soy sauce, honey, garlic, and ginger in a medium saucepan and set over medium heat.

In a small bowl, combine the cornstarch with the 1/4 cup water and whisk until dissolved. Add the cornstarch mixture to the saucepan.

Heat the sauce until it thickens to your desired thickness. If the sauce becomes too thick, add more water to thin it out.

I made this and it is delicious,  I did tweak it just a bit by adding a bit of sesame oil.

I didn't expect much as I'm used to store bought teriyaki sauce, but this is really tasty! I usually use just less of the honey as I find it quite sweet. 10/10

I suggest going with fresh ginger. It is no more difficult than chopping up garlic, and the flavor payoff is worth it.

This recipe was great! It congealed a bit when we put some leftover in the fridge. Is that normal or should it remain sauce like? I'm worried I did something wrong to it, even though it tasted great!

This was just super yum! I was planning Korean beef for dinner and opened a jar of store bought sauce which smelled and tastes awful. Your recipe totally saved the day and my other half loved it too. Tonight I'm using it for teriyaki salmon with noodles. Thank you! :)

This recipe took me less than five minutes to make.  I used it as a sauce with ground turkey and water chestnuts in a lettuce wrap.  I did add a bit of chili powder for a slight zing.

We loved the sauce!  I added a bit more brown sug and less honey. Also used fresh ginger. This recipie is written down for fruture use! Thank ypu for sharing!!

Thank you for this great recipe!  Absolutely fabulous!  If someone has a problem with the high sodium content in soy sauce, try BRAGG LIQUID AMINOS.  It is an all purpose seasoning from Soy Protein.  It is a natural soy sauce alternative with only 6% sodium, gluten-free, NON-GMO, and contains no preservatives.  My sister has a problem with the high sodium content in a lot of  foods so I try to use only no sodium or low sodium ingredients when I am preparing her dinners.  My grocery store carries it and the manager said most grocery stores should carry it.  It has the same great soy sauce taste without the sodium, gluten, GMO's, and preservatives.

PS:  I do not work for this company but wanted to share this information in case someone has a high sensitivity to the usual ingredients in store bought soy sauces.  Again, thank you for this great recipe!

Just made this and it is delicious! Way better than the bottled stuff I was buying, thank you!

Thanks for the recipe! Really!
A quick related question though, How many days I can store the sauce in the refrigerator? 

Thanks!:-)

This recipe was great for my late night need for teriyaki sauce. I had made some chicken kebabs and only after they were made did I realize that there wasn’t any teriyaki sauce in my pantry. Fortunately, I had everything to make this, I just needed to combine them and let it thicken. It was so quick and easy to make AND it tastes absolutely delicious. I didn’t have a clove of garlic so I ended up putting in garlic powder, and I used dark brown sugar as well as a reduced sodium soy sauce. To me this teriyaki sauce is perfect. I don’t think I’ll ever want to go buy teriyaki sauce from shelves anymore.

This saved dinner 🥘 tonight. Many thanks

I used 1/4 cup honey, and 2tb molasses, ground garlic, and left out the sugar. I have to say this recipe is great! I will definitely keep rotating it into my meals!
Thanks for sharing.

This is the first teriyaki recipe I tried and it was a big hit! Thanks

I made this teriyaki sauce this evening for grilled chicken! Hands down the best homemade teriyaki sauce!  This will be my go to recipe from now on.  
Thank you so much.

This is really good. Didn't add the cornstarch because I'm using it as a marinade. Chicken pieces sitting in it right now😊.
Definitely a keeper and will be using again.

I have to give the recipe 5 stars, if I could give more I would. I have never left a comment on a recipe before, but I had to for this one. Everyone in the house loved this sauce, I made it yesterday for a recipe, now I'm making it again for another recipe!

I have used this recipe, with my tweeks for taste, many times, both in the Crockpot (slow cooker) &amp; in the oven, &amp; on b/s chicken thighs &amp; breasts &amp; on bone-in/skin- on thighs. I also add a bit of sesame oil, but very little, maybe a 1/4 teaspoon, because it will overpower other flavors. I also add a teaspoon, or more to taste, of seasoned rice wine vinegar. I always taste &amp; tweek, as some like a sweeter sauce &amp; some like it more savory with additional soy, garlic &amp; ginger. This is an excellent base from which to start!

This is an awesome recipe. Taste absolutely great.

I made this for my family with a tofu stir fry and everyone wanted seconds! I used arrowroot powder, coconut sugar, fresh ginger and agave nectar as substitutes and it was fabulous. The sauce was definitely dark and thick and delicious!

Made this marinade today for grilled chicken. Easy to make and was great!

This was good but a little weak! Next time I might sub chicken broth for the water to give a little more flavor.

I made this recipe and it turned out perfect! I added 1/8 tsp of crushed red pepper to give it a kick. It's so much better than store bought. This will now be my go to recipe for this sauce. Thanks for sharing it.

Looks delicious! . Can’t wait to try these!


This is great first time i make it so good used olive oil instead thanks

Just made this an hour ago and I'm really impressed! It's delicious, really simple to make and almost filled 2 bon mamam jam jars so lots to enjoy! I have put some on diced chicken fillets to marinade overnight and will make chicken skewers with them tomorrow. I can't wait!!! Thank you Deborah :)

I added a bit more ginger for my taste and canned the excess for later. Perfect for meal prep. Spot on. Thanks!

We doubled the recipe for a large family and it worked beautifully and tasted delicious

This has become my go to teriyaki recipe! I work for an assisted living and recently made teriyaki wings and they loved it!

Made this for family and friends last night. EVERYONE loved it (even my super-picky eater who is 11 and hates just about everything I cook)!!!  This will be a permanent recipe for our family. Quick. Simple. Easy. Delicious!

Finally a teriyaki sauce that isn't too salty! So good!

I've made this sauce using this recipie. My daughter and i love it! So muchso,  that my daugter could just drink it if i let her! 
So easy and quick to make. Thanks for sharing. 🙏🌻

This turned out AWESOME! I did sub 1/2 orange juice for the water for a bit extra flavor and all in all super yum!

This is Devine.. I chop up chicken thighs and coat in corn flour and fry with a bit of oil in pan, once cooked I coat in this teriyaki sauce serve with salad with pickled ginger and rice..family favourite!

Good recipe, but I found it's missing something.  Needs a touch of sourness.

I added 1 Tablespoon of Rice Wine Vinegar and it made all the difference.

It is very easy and flavorful but it was too sweet for me so I added more of everything else and then it turned out very nice.

I made it today and used it to season wok stir-fried noodles. So good! 
It took 5-6 minutes of whisking the ingredients over med-high heat to douse the bubbles, deepen the sauce to a dark, rich brown, thicken it to a perfect consistency, and meld all the flavors after adding the water-cornstarch mixture.
I cut the packed brown sugar to 4T, used 1.5T honey and it was plenty sweet for me.
I like knowing making it from scratch means one less store-bought glass bottle to buy and recycle..
Thanks Deborah!

I just made to use for a large church dinner so I quadrupled the recipe, then added more soy sauce and a little water. The flavor is intense and delicious. My pot boiled over so it's not as thick as I'd like but I will reheat before I use as a sauce for chicken lo mein. And the it should thicken up. Thanks!

Teriyaki sauce turned out just as expected. Husband was impressed! Thank you for sharing!

I've made this recipe at least a dozen times, so a bit overdue for a review! Perfect on salmon.

Love this teriyaki sauce! Quick, easy and tastes great!

I made it tonight and I will be making it again for sure!

Next time I'll add less honey, it was really sweet. I added garlic and fresh ginger.  And a teaspoon of apple cider vinegar other wise so good . Better than the jar

This was okay, but not nearly as good as what I've had in restaurants or what my Japanese mother-in-law use to make. I used only about 3 Tbs. of brown sugar and even with that, it was still too sweet, so I would use a bit less sugar next time and a bit more ginger. Perhaps a bit more garlic as well. The consistency of the sauce was nice, though.

Great recipe. Mix in some pineapple juice for another sweet treat and it turns Hawaiian. Thanks for sharing

This recipe was tasty and super simple to put together! Great sauce for chicken and broccoli. Thank you for sharing! :)

This was an amazing sauce. We now use it every time we make stir fry!

Loved this recipe. It was a tad sweet for us so I added a bit more soy sauce and a touch of balsamic vinegar. It was perfect!!

Can and for how long can it be kept in a fridge?

Amazing! This is a brilliant recipe, thank you! I'll never buy Teriyaki sauce in the shops...

My family made the teriyaki sauce and we made teriyaki shishcabobs

Ok  very good teriyaki chicken minus homey

So good! And so quick and easy to whip up!

A new go-to for me, thanks!

This recipe is very good and it's easy.  I love how you cook the sauce to thicken it. My 12 year old grandson is learning to cook. We are going to make this the next time we have  chicken wings.

I loved this recipe! Had to tweak it for my own tastes but it was super easy and delicious.

10/10 great recipe. Made it with some grilled chicken and asparagus and they made a great trio together. I'll definitely make it again.

A must keep recipe; thank you for sharing your recipe with us and keep this going! This recipe is great hit in my family :) Keep up with the excellent work

Substituted 1 tbsp sugar with 1 tbsp hon mirin and only used 1 tbsp corn flour. This sauce was perfect!

Such a yummy sauce. I made it for grilled chicken pieces and sprinkled sesame seeds on the pcs. It was such a winner.

We had to substitute flour for corn starch but other wise prepared as prescribed.  Very good on steak as well as dumplings, and fried rice.  Will punch it up a bit next time as I like hot spicy with the sweet.

This recipe makes me look like I know what I’m doing in the kitchen!! I do not! Thank you! This recipe is spot on and delicious!

The best teriyaki sauce recipe I've found ever... have tried many and this one will be my go to!

Have been hunting for a recipe to replace our sushi teriyaki sauce that is no longer made.
This is perfect and the kids even gave it a full thumbs up of approval.

Very good! I didn’t want to go out to the store just for that so it worked out really well! It was a little sweet, but will use this again for sure maybe less honey.

I wanted to make a good shrimp stir fry for dinner tonight. This sauce is going to be perfect.  It's 6 am and I'm already looking forward to dinner tonight.

The idea of using maple syrup never occurred to me. I'll give it a try and double the garlic (My wife eats garlic like candy.).

Very delicious recipe, very easy to make, definitely a go to.

Delicious! Exactly what I was looking for. My family loved it! Thank you.

Great recipe and so easy! I used fresh grated ginger to give it extra zing - it turn out as good or better than the store bought kind and a lot less expensive. Thanks!

I normally have never liked store bought teriyaki sauce but I tried this recipe and it was amazingly delicious!!!!
I would definitely recommend it for anyone to try.  Also it is super easy to make and homemade is always better and cheaper.
