My son loves Chicken Teriyaki from a Japanese Restaurant we go to. I hate spending money eating out, and I could make it at home if I only knew how to make the thick teriyaki sauce they put on it. When I see Teriyaki sauce in a bottle at the store, it looks thin and runny. Does anyone know how to make it like the restaurants do?

I love teriyaki chicken too, but unfortunately I don't know how to make the sauce either, but I would suggest looking on www.foodnetwork.com. Whenever I am looking for a recipe that I can't find anywhere else I try there and I usually have very good luck.

You can buy the Teriyaki sauce from the store. To thicken it up just add flour a bit at a time until it is the consistency that you like.

Thanks, I'll try that. I need it to taste just like the kind in the restaurants though or he won't like it. Lol. I'll let you know if it works.
