Teriyaki chicken is a popular dish originating from Japanese cuisine, known for its sweet and savory flavors. The dish typically features boneless chicken, marinated or glazed in a teriyaki sauce made from soy sauce, sugar, mirin, and sometimes ginger or garlic. After cooking, the chicken is often served atop steamed rice and paired with vegetables such as broccoli or carrots to round out the meal. Teriyaki chicken provides a good source of protein, essential for muscle repair and energy. However, the sauce is often high in sugar and sodium, which should be consumed in moderation, particularly for those watching their salt or calorie intake. Homemade versions can be customized with reduced-sodium soy sauce and minimal sugar, making it a healthier option. Its balance of flavors and nutrients makes teriyaki chicken a satisfying choice for many, blending tradition and nutrition in one delicious dish.
