Teriyaki originated in Japan, possibly influenced by Chinese cooking techniques. The term 'teri' refers to the glaze, while 'yaki' means grilling or broiling. Early versions likely involved marinading fish in soy sauce and sugar. The popularity of teriyaki chicken specifically rose significantly in the 20th century, especially in the United States, where it was adapted to suit local tastes.

Recurso Premium
Teriyaki chicken is characterized by a harmonious blend of sweet and savory flavors, originating from its signature sauce.
The primary flavors are sweetness from sugar (or mirin) and umami/saltiness from soy sauce. Ginger and garlic often contribute aromatic depth, and sake or other rice wine can add complexity. The chicken itself provides a meaty, slightly fatty base that absorbs the sauce beautifully. The grilling or pan-frying process imparts a subtle smoky char that enhances the overall taste.

Marinade Duration
Marinate the chicken for at least 30 minutes, but ideally several hours, to allow the flavors to fully penetrate the meat.
Don't Overcook
Avoid overcooking the chicken, as it will become dry. Cook until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
Glaze Towards the End
Apply the teriyaki sauce during the last few minutes of cooking to prevent burning and ensure a glossy, flavorful glaze.
Sauce Consistency
For a thicker glaze, simmer the teriyaki sauce in a separate pan until it reduces and coats the back of a spoon.
