    Directions

    • First, peel ginger using a spoon and grate using a zester or grater.
    • Next, using a lemon squeezer, juice the orange.
    • To make the marinade, whisk together soy sauce, orange juice, honey, ginger, and sesame oil.
    • Cut chicken into 1-inch pieces and place in the teriyaki marinade. Stir and cover with plastic wrap or aluminum foil and place in the fridge for 20 minutes.
    • Then, heat oil a large skillet over medium heat. Using a slotted spoon, remove chicken and place in the skillet.
    • Cook chicken until it is golden brown and done thoroughly.
    • When the chicken cooked, turn off the heat and place chicken in a bowl.
    • Pour the remainder of the marinade in the skillet and add butter and place on medium heat.
    • Bring to a boil and stir until it thickens. Then, add chicken and combine with sauce.
    • This dish is best served with perfectly steamed rice. If you want a healthier alternative you can swap out the rice with quinoa. For further reading, view our guide for cooking flavorful quinoa.
