About Chicken in teriyaki sauce

Chicken in Teriyaki Sauce is a flavorful dish rooted in Japanese cuisine, featuring tender chicken cooked in a savory-sweet glaze made from soy sauce, mirin, sugar, and sometimes ginger or garlic. This dish is often accompanied by vegetables or served over steamed rice. The chicken provides a lean source of protein, essential for muscle growth and repair, while the teriyaki sauce adds bold flavors. However, the traditional sauce can be high in sodium and sugar, so portion control is key for a balanced meal. To enhance its nutritional value, opt for skinless chicken and pair it with fiber-rich vegetables like broccoli or snap peas. Home-made versions allow for healthier tweaks, like reducing sugar or using low-sodium soy sauce, making it a delicious yet mindful choice for those looking to enjoy Japanese-inspired flavors with a healthy twist.
