Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a bowl, combine soy sauce, brown sugar, honey, minced garlic, and minced ginger. Mix well until the sugar is dissolved.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Chicken

    Place the chicken breasts in a resealable plastic bag or shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring it is well coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, preferably 2 hours.

  3. 3

    Cook the Chicken

    Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade and add it to the skillet. Cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the chicken is cooked through and has a nice golden-brown color.

  4. 4

    Make the Teriyaki Sauce

    In a small bowl, mix cornstarch and water until smooth. Add the remaining marinade to the skillet with the chicken and bring to a simmer. Stir in the cornstarch mixture and cook until the sauce thickens, about 2 minutes.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Slice the chicken and drizzle the thickened teriyaki sauce over it. Garnish with sesame seeds and chopped green onions before serving.
