  • “Brushed this marinade on vegetable skewers and boneless, skinless chicken breast…threw it on the George Foreman, and LOVED it!!! I saved a little of the marinade to pour over steamed rice. SUPERB!!! Thanks Walt!!~Manda”

  • “A wonderful flavored teriyaki sauce!The only correction I made to the recipe was to omit the water and replace it with 1/2 cup pineapple juice, it gives an even sweeter (but not overly sweet) flavor.I also thicken this sauce by simmering it and adding 1-2 tbsp. of corn starch.It thickens nicely and is perfect to use on chicken stir fry.My family loves this sauce….thank you :)”

  • “I used this marinade on thinly sliced sirloin that was marinated for several hours, then threaded onto bamboo skewers and grilled.The sauce had excellent flavor and I loved how it could also be used as a dipping sauce by adding water and boiling.Served over white rice with some of the extra sauce.”

  • “This was a little too sweet for me.I made a double batch but didn’t use it all.I think I’ll add just a little bit of lemon juice to the rest.”

  • “I can’t believe I never made this before – I have been eyeing it forever. I used this sauce to marinate some chicken wings. They turned out beautifully! Delicious. I will definitely use this again. (Probably should have used it on my beef tonight instead of trying something new…) I wasn’t able to cook the marinade and use to toss the wings, because it picked up a little too much “chicken yuck” somehow, but next time I might make a little extra just for that purpose. I also think I could have grilled the wings plain and tossed them in the sauce after if I didn’t have time to marinate.”

  • “I marinated shrimp then used some of the marinade to grill them.Delish!”

  • “Marinated sliced chicken breasts using this recipe.I reserved some of the sauce to use while doing the stir fry thing with the chicken and some veggies (carrots, onion, snow peas, celery). Served over rice.Thanks for a delicious dinner.”

  • “a very good easy recipe.Thanks!!”

  • “Make sure you try this!! You will love the flavor.Thanks so much for this recipe.I made it as writen and it was great!”

  • “Very Tasty!!!!I added 1/4 Cup of crushed pineapple on heavy syrup and decreased the amount of honey… then used this sauce to marinate pork and it was fantastic!!! it is a keeper!!!”

  • “We marinaded chicken tenders in this and then grilled them.I used the remainder to baste some pineapple rings before grilling them as well.Yummy!”

  • “This must be my tenth time making it and i realised too i didn’t review it. We all love it! Make it with chicken and served it with rice. Nice flavors.”

  • “I just realized after pulling up this recipe to make it for the 4th time I never reviewed it.This is wonderfull on salmon, marinade a few fillets for a few hours and served the remaining sauce as a glaze over the salmon, steamed rice and broccoli.Very good!”

  • “I’ve been using this recipe for about 2 years now after searching for a good one for years.We absolutely love it!Thank you so much for sharing!I usually quadruple it and store some in the refrigerator for use on rice.We have used it as a marinade for pork, chicken and steak.Yummy!”

  • “I agree with Acerast, I’ll never by Teriyaki Marinade again — this is way better and so easy that my hubby, who doesn’t cook, actually put it together.We maranated 2 pork tenderloins for 12 hours — grilled them on the BBQ;and served them thinly sliced with a mustard dipping sauce as a passed appetizer.”

  • “This was pretty good.Better than some of the other recipes that Ive tried.Even tho I did have to doctor it up to fit my tastes.I added some onion and garlic powder, brown sugar, and cornstarch to thicken it to make it a sauce.Thanks for the recipe.”

  • “Excellent Teriyaki!The family lovd it.I used it on pork tonight and was extremely pleased with the resulting flavor.It came together in minutes from items I always have on hand and tastes so much better than commercial products.I’m another cook who will never purchase Teriyaki sauce again.Thanks Winnipeg Walt.”

  • “I wanted to make Mirj’s Funkey Chicken with Sesame Noodles and discovered I had no teriyaki sauce. I picked this one since I had all the ingredients and I’m sure glad I did. Why ever buy pre-made sauce when you can make this and not only is it cheaper- it tastes better! No more store bought teriyaki sauce for me!Thanks Walt!”

  • “I use this recipe every time I make Easy Chicken Egg Rolls https://www.recipezaar.com/113223 and it always turns out great.Before measuring out the honey, I spray the measuring cup with a spot of cooking spray and the honey comes right out without any gooey mess.Thanks!”

  • “This was excellent.I doubled the recipe but otherwise made as directed. I used it to marinate a pork tenderloin (4-5 hours) and then cooked the sauce and added some cornstarch to thicken it.The pork was tasty, but the real hit was the teriyaki dipping sauce, according to my 6-year-old.His thumbs up is reason enough to make it again! Thanks for posting!”
