Ingredients:

• 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 1/2 cup soy sauce
• 1/4 cup mirin
• 1/4 cup sake
• 2 tablespoons brown sugar
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon grated ginger
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch
• 2 tablespoons water
• Sesame seeds, for garnish
• Sliced green onions, for garnish

Instructions: How to Cook Quintessence Chicken Teriyaki

1. Start by preparing the teriyaki sauce. In a small saucepan, combine the soy sauce, mirin, sake, brown sugar, garlic, and ginger. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook for 5 minutes.
2. In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch and water to create a slurry. Slowly pour the slurry into the sauce while whisking constantly. Continue to cook the sauce until it thickens, about 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
3. Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper, then grill for 6-7 minutes per side, or until cooked through.
4. Brush the teriyaki sauce onto the chicken during the last few minutes of cooking, allowing it to caramelize slightly.
5. Once the chicken is cooked through and glazed with the teriyaki sauce, remove from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.
6. Serve the Quintessence Chicken Teriyaki garnished with sesame seeds and sliced green onions. Enjoy!
