Treat your ingredients with care...
- Chicken thighs — For a healthier option, you can use skinless chicken breasts instead of thighs. However, thighs tend to be more tender and flavorful.
- Kecap manis — If you can't find kecap manis, you can substitute it with a mixture of equal parts soy sauce and brown sugar.
Tips & Tricks
- For a spicier version, add extra chili powder or chopped red chilies to the marinade.
- To achieve a glossy finish, brush the chicken with the marinade while cooking.
- If you prefer a thicker sauce, mix 1 teaspoon of cornstarch with 1 tablespoon of water and add it to the sauce during the simmering process.
- For added freshness, squeeze some lime juice over the cooked chicken before serving.
- Customize your dish by adding vegetables like bell peppers, onions, or broccoli to the stir-fry.
Serving advice
Serve the Indo-style Teriyaki Chicken with steamed rice or noodles for a complete meal. Add a side of fresh cucumber slices or a refreshing salad to balance the flavors.
Presentation advice
Arrange the Indo-style Teriyaki Chicken on a platter, garnished with chopped spring onions and sesame seeds. Drizzle some extra teriyaki sauce over the chicken for an appetizing presentation.
