How to Make Your Own Chicken Teriyaki Instead of Ordering Takeout

This article is written by a student writer from the Spoon University at McGill chapter.

Cooking can be a struggle. From cutting all your vegetables to washing the dishes, the whole process could take 2 hours. I don’t have time for that, do you?

Whenever I am in a pinch I love make this chicken teriyaki recipe. Sometimes I will even buy a butt ton of chicken from #Costco, marinate it, portion the chicken, and freeze it in small Ziploc bags. This way I will always have chicken teriyaki ready to go.

My recommendation is to marinate this chicken overnight, however 30 minutes is enough to get the flavour of the sauce into the chicken. The best part about this recipe is that the teriyaki sauce can be used for beef, salmon, chicken wings — you name it.
