Prepare the Teriyaki Sauce
In a small saucepan, combine soy sauce, brown sugar, rice vinegar, minced garlic, grated ginger, and sesame oil. Heat over medium heat, stirring until the sugar is dissolved. Allow the sauce to simmer for about 5 minutes until it thickens slightly. Remove from heat and let it cool.
