Ingredients
 

  • 3-5 Garlic Cloves minced
  • 2 tablespoons Fresh Ginger minced
  • ½ cup Low-Sodium Soy Sauce
  • ½ cup Orange Juice
  • ½ cup Water
  • 6 tablespoons Agave or Maple Syrup
  • ¼ cup Rice Vinegar
  • 3 tablespoons Mirin or Rice Wine
  • Red Pepper Flakes to preference
  • 4 teaspoons Cornstarch

Instructions

  • Mince the garlic and ginger.
  • Add a small splash of oil to a frying pan on medium heat. Sauté the garlic and ginger until fragrant, being careful not to burn.
  • Whisk together the soy sauce, orange juice, water, maple syrup, rice vinegar, mirin, red pepper flakes, and the cornstarch in a small bowl. Whisk until the cornstarch has dissolved.
  • Pour the sauce in to the pan with the garlic and ginger and whisk together. Cook on medium-high heat until the sauce has thickened. This will only take a few minutes. It will continue to thicken as it cools.
  • Take the sauce off heat and use immediately or store in an airtight jar for up to a week!

Notes

This teriyaki sauce recipe makes a little over 1 cup but can easily be doubled and stored in the fridge in an air-tight jar for up to a week!
