 Chef Shea Bearer here today is Walk Wednesday and I'm going to show you how to make your homemade teriyaki sauce it's real simple it's not my recipe but my recipe is pretty much the same as what you're going to see here what I usually do is I substitute some stuff with like white vinegar or white wine or something like that but I'm going to do it the way the recipe calls and it's real easy I'll show you how to do that so stick around. Okay guys so this is the stuff we're going to be using we've got a cup of water here one cup and we've got three-fourths cups of soy sauce which this is what I'm using here we're going to use five teaspoons of brown sugar now I've only got four in here okay because it's going it calls for honey too and I don't want to make the girls sugar level go a little high so I'm only using four but it calls for four teaspoons and this is going to be one tablespoon of honey here and it calls for a quarter teaspoon of garlic powder now I don't have any garlic powder besides I like using this this is I just cut this up this is just this is three cloves of garlic here about medium-sized cloves I'm going to use about half of this which is going to be about it's going to be about maybe a teaspoon you're going to want two tablespoons of cornstarch which I've already got in this bowl and a quarter cup of cold water now what you're going to do is mix this up I'm just using a little fork you mix this up okay and here we're going to put it in here in our pan here in just a few minutes okay so let me get you set up over here so you can see what's going on over here at the pan okay so what we're going to do is we're going to start off we're going to pour water in our soy sauce it's not quite three-fourths a cup good but that's all I had so now we're going to put our garlic in we're going to do our ginger here which is how much was that half a teaspoon this is a one teaspoon but so we're just going to put whoops about that's about a half a teaspoon put this in here in our brown sugar you guys might have seen this this is just for me it doesn't call for this but about maybe a half a teaspoon doesn't take much of that stuff at all now we're going to put our honey in here one tablespoon what we're going to do so we're going to bring this up to temperature and I'm going to use a whisk I got a whisk here and just going to want to go just till it starts just till it's warm and it's there now this is where we're going to add this in here this is our quarter cup of water and two tablespoons of cornstarch I'm going to put that in there we're going to mix it up I'm going to bring this to oh you know medium boil and then I'm going to let let it cook and I'm going to stir it occasionally I'm going to let it cook for five to seven minutes is what it calls for but that's usually about right I usually go about five minutes but so there we go and then this part is going to be done then I'm going to cook some chicken in the wok with our homemade sauce here but right now let's go ahead and we're going to let this cook okay guys I let it go about six minutes I did put a oh I don't know maybe a teaspoon of onion in there just kind of give it a little kick that's it now you're done all you have to do is let cool down and bottle it up you can strain that out if you want to I normally do but what it'll do it'll thicken up see how thick that is piece onion on there nice now I'll show you kind of what this is store-bought here and I'll show you about the consistency it should be now it'll also thicken up more once it cools down see kind of like that but I'm not going to worry about yeah perfect I'm not going to worry about it bottling it up because I'm going to use it in my chicken so what I'm going to do is I'm going to get my walker ready and I'm going to make my chicken so if you guys just wanted to see how I made made my sauce there you go but if you want to see me make the chicken it's just gonna be real quick all I did was excuse me took a bunch of chicken thighs and I just cut them up I didn't like kind of like Cuban but I just Cuban them up I just I deboned them I skinned them and I just just kind of no no particular way or anything like that so I'm gonna go ahead and get this hot and get this ready and once it's ready I'll start throwing I want to do my onions first and then I'll do my all I had the rest of my garlic in there and then we'll fry them up monkey got these noodles so I'm gonna make these noodles for them and well for me I'm gonna have some too I think they'll probably put theirs on top I'll just put mine on the side so starting to get warm so let's get ready for the chicken okay guys so what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna take the skins off my chicken that I took off my chicken and I'm gonna cook them in here and it's gonna make some it's gonna make some nice grease down at the bottom of there see that and it's going to also help flavor the pan for me so I can use less oil if any at all so it's a little more healthier and of course you don't have to throw away you can actually freeze it and use it again or you can cook it up I like to eat the skin but and I usually fry up a couple kind of crispy for Bruno but so that's what I'm gonna do there was a I've had people ask me before how much chicken do you use what depends on how how many people you're cooking for I just went ahead and used all 10 because once you cut it up and cook it up it does shrink up a little bit but a lot of people gauge it one piece per person I like to have a little extra expensive from having company so I gave you about two pieces per person like I said there's a little extra in here but that's okay so once I take this out then we'll start adding our chicken or no then I'll do the onions and then we'll go to the chicken so stick with me if you're still interested in this and real simple real simple recipe so alright guys I'll be right back okay so I let that render down some I'm just gonna go ahead and put this back in a bowl here see how much grease and stuff came out of that this was a lot so what I'm gonna do I am gonna take some of that out of there while most of it out because I want to use some butter for them for the onions and what I've got here is I've got two tablespoons here of butter I'm gonna note this in here just kind of want to go on a like a medium high but it starts popping in stuff you're too hot which I pop all the time baby but anyway so now let's go ahead and we're gonna go ahead and put our onions in these are getting put back in so I'm not gonna fully caramelize them or anything like that I just want them to start getting brown and then we're gonna take them out we're gonna do our chicken then we'll put these back in so nice that nice sizzling sound and also if it starts drying up on you a little bit you can take some of this and add back in there look at that how yellow that is yeah and I still haven't had had to add any oil all I did was add the butter for some flavoring so I'm gonna go ahead actually I can do this now we'll go ahead and put our our garlic in here this stuff is good for you guys great for the heart and it's proven so now if you want take some of your homemade soy sauce or homemade teriyaki sauce see how much that thickened up now perfect a couple this is just a teaspoon in there you don't have to do it this way just what I'm doing so like always say guys it's your recipe recipe if you'd like it there's no wrong way to do it then so I'm gonna turn this up a little bit now I'm gonna let this cook for a couple minutes then we'll take this out we'll start putting our chicken in I got a lot of chicken over there because last time we didn't have enough and everybody was complaining and smacking me around that I didn't make enough so this time see behind the camera I just got smack see look my hat it's den of where she hit me so anyway guys I'll be back with you hang talking okay as you can see they're not clear brown but they're just starting brown up just took a couple minutes I'm gonna take them out you believe man if you want but I'm doing so much chicken that I'm just gonna take almost of it out and the but it's gonna go back in and cook a little bit once the chicken gets back in there or gets once the chicken gets done I should say what I did with my chicken I coated it with I think it was it probably about cuz you know I didn't really measure it but I'm guessing about a tablespoon cuz I used a lot of chicken I just coated it in yeah the white stuff what's it called corn corn starch okay so we're just gonna put some of this in here you can see I got a lot of this I'm just gonna do like half and half I also put some season salt a little bit of lemon pepper on here season your chicken anyway you want that's what everyone here like that stick around I'm just gonna flatten this out kind of turn it over till it starts getting brown and I'll do the next batch and then we'll put it all in and we'll put our teriyaki sauce and then we'll start mixing them all together okay so now we're gonna add the onions and whatever grease or whatever's in there that's fine just go ahead and dump it all in there and our first batch of chicken there just dump it in do it a nice little stir now I'm gonna add okay that handle got hot alright we're gonna add some of this in here you may or may not have to add some more it's up to you now I'll make give it a quick mix and I'm gonna let this simmer oh 10 to 12 minutes maybe 15 and I'll bring you back show you what we got it's actually only been about 10 minutes so as you can see it thickened up it'll reduce if it's still like if it's just a little bit too saucy for you what you can do is add a a teaspoon at a time of your dang it stuff of your this stuff cornstarch cornstarch or flour you guys can use flour too just add a teaspoon at a time add a teaspoon stir it up a little bit see if it starts thickening once it starts thickening you're good to go or if you want a little more soupy a little more sauce add some more your your stuff in here or you can just add water you can add half a half a cup of half a glass of wine yeah that'd be mom but if you're gonna use wine use white wine but you know use a half a cup of wine which you can add in anyhow it doesn't matter it's now your recipe make it how you want it monkey has tried it but I'm gonna plate it up we'll show you what it looks like and I'll be back with you and we'll do our as monkey calls it ending so hang tight guys okay so we had to change your plans on the noodles explain that to you here in a minute it's only just these noodles you just boil for four minutes add a little bit of this stir-fry them for about 30 seconds and we're ready to go so there's that but these noodles didn't turn out I don't know why says two cups of water for one pack well I made two packs so I used two cups or four cups of water well apparently that was too much so alright guys we're gonna dish this up and try it out okay guys so this is what it looks like turns up pretty good now you can you can use rice which she was going to and then all once you want to noodles that didn't pan out so I had some more of these other kind that you've seen me make I said only gonna take about four or five minutes she was like okay so I mean put these on a wrap they're really good on a wrap yeah yeah so we're gonna give it a shot and then we'll let you go here let me get you turned up here like I said monkeys monkeys already tried this I tried a little piece her mom's already ate she said it was good so she likes the chick you like the chicken better than the beef tips just that I find the chicken more tender yeah cuz they're beef tips they're not real tender but some of them were tender and some of them weren't yeah and when I cut them up myself you know I can cut all the gristle and everything else right and there you have it so for those of you that stuck around for the second half of this
