Sticky Sesame Chicken

Teriyaki is a cooking technique used in Japanese cuisine in which foods are grilled with a glaze of soy sauce, mirin, and sugar. The word teriyaki derives from the Japanese noun teri, which translates to gloss or shine, and yaki, which refers to the cooking method of grilling. As you’ll see from tonight’s recipe, it’s the perfect solution for when you’re short of time, a but want to create a dish that’s packed with delicious flavour.

Due to the war in Ukraine, it has been necessary to substitute sunflower oil with rapeseed oil in some products without a label change. The FSA have advised that allergic reactions to rapeseed oil are rare.
