Teriyaki Sauce (Tyler Florence)

A quick homemade teriyaki sauce with soy sauce, fresh orange juice, honey, ginger, garlic and toasted sesame seeds. It works equally well as a flavorful sauce or as a marinade for chicken, shrimp or beef.


Yield: About 1½ cups
Prep Time: About 10 minutes
Chill Time: 1 hour

Ingredients:

  • ½ cup soy sauce
  • 2 teaspoons dark sesame oil
  • Juice of 2 oranges
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 2 tablespoons fresh ginger, peeled and minced
  • ½ cup scallions, chopped
  • 2 teaspoons garlic, minced
  • 2 teaspoons sesame seeds, toasted

Instructions:

  1. Combine the soy sauce, sesame oil, orange juice and honey in a large bowl.
  2. Add the ginger, scallions, garlic and toasted sesame seeds.
  3. Whisk everything together until well combined.
  4. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour to allow the flavors to blend.
  5. Use as a sauce or as a marinade for chicken, shrimp or beef.

Tip: If using the teriyaki sauce as a marinade for raw meat or poultry, discard the used marinade afterward rather than serving it as a sauce unless it is thoroughly boiled first.
