Recipe Notes

Teriyaki is great. Terrific rich flavors that are sweet and sour using ingredients like soy sauce, ginger, garlic, sugar or molasses. Some contain citrus like orange or grapefruit.

Making your own sauce is easy and there are endless variations but for most of us making a sauce requires having a lot of those ingredients on hand and might not be practical.

There are some good bottled sauces on the market and this is one of those meals that is so simple and by using a bottled sauce it works for a quickie weekday meal. There are low sodium versions and San J even makes their teriyaki with gluten free tamari sauce.
