Teriyaki Sauce Notes –

Sake is a Japanese wine made from fermented rice. It is also commonly used in Japanese cooking, usually in sauces or marinades. Sake can be substituted for 1 part rice wine vinegar to 3 parts water, so for this recipe, you will need 12.5ml rice wine vinegar and 27.5ml of water.

Mirin is a Japanese rice wine similar to Sake. Mirin has a lower alcohol level than Sake but contains more sugar. For those that can’t consume alcohol, it can be substituted for 1 part sugar to 3 parts water, so for this recipe, you will need 10g of sugar and 35ml of water.

Ingredients if you don’t consume alcohol –

Makes – 130ml

30ml (1 1/2 Tbsp) – Soy Sauce
20ml (1 Tbsp) – Dark Soy Sauce
1 1/2 tsp (7.5g) – Granulated Sugar
80ml (1/3 Cup) – Vegetable or Chicken Stock

Both soy sauces are interchangeable which means you can use one for the other or omit one completely. If you don’t use dark soy sauce the teriyaki sauce will be much lighter in colour.

Chicken Notes –

I’ve used 6 large chicken thighs in this recipe, resulting in 8 skewers with 4 pieces of chicken on each. If you wish to make more, this recipe can easily have more chicken added without needing to add any other ingredients. If you plan to make more and serve more than two people, it is recommended to increase the number of carrots and parsnips.
