Teriyaki is actually a combination of 2 words, “Tari” for the shine that is left from the sugar content of the sauce and “Yaki” for cooking by grilling or broiling. You can find any number of teriyaki sauces at the grocery store or market, but it basically all breaks down to Soy Sauce, Sugar , Garlic and Ginger. It gives a sweet, salty, spicy and savory edge to any type of protein whether it’s Red Meat, Poultry or Fish.

Since moving to the Southwest, I’ve been addicted to Carne Asada, which is just a think flank steak that’s been marinated for a day or 2 in fresh citrus juice and spices. It’s such a flavorful meat and the citrus gives it a great flavor that you don’t normally get with the regular oil and vinegar type of marinades. This marinade will work great with Steak or Chicken, or even thick cut vegetables for the grill. Try it for your next barbecue.
