After starting the main course in Thailand and then taking to a trip to Europe with the kielbasa and Dijon, we are back in the Far East – Japan.
I made a Teriyaki sauce that I used for marinating and dipping. If you do this, DO NOT REUSE THE SAUCE. Make two batches and use one for each, else you may be inviting problems. I decided to take boneless and skinless chicken thighs and each guest had 1/2 a thigh. It was delicious.
This is a very easy sauce to make. I’ve seen some recipes without the pineapple juice and can’t imagine making them as the juice adds both sweetness and flavor.
Giving the mirin a boil.
Adding the rest and cook.
