Chicken Teriyaki

Chicken Teriyaki is a savory dish featuring tender chicken breast pieces sautéed in a sweet and tangy teriyaki sauce. The sauce, made with soy sauce, rice vinegar, mirin, garlic, ginger, honey, and brown sugar, caramelizes during cooking, creating a glossy glaze. The result is a flavorful, slightly sticky chicken dish that pairs well with steamed rice.

For the savory and sweet flavors of Chicken Teriyaki, a sautéed dish with soy sauce, mirin, garlic, ginger, and honey, an off-dry white wine like Moscatel de Alejandría is a great pairing. The grape's fruity and floral notes complement the dish's sweetness, while its acidity balances the rich, umami flavors. Alternatively, a light-bodied Sangiovese with its red fruit and earthy notes can cut through the bold flavors.
