Tips:

  • To make the teriyaki sauce from scratch, combine soy sauce, mirin, sake, brown sugar, and cornstarch in a saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium heat, then reduce heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened.
  • If you don't have time to make your own teriyaki sauce, you can use store-bought teriyaki sauce. Just be sure to choose a brand that is low in sodium.
  • To cook the chicken, you can grill it, pan-fry it, or bake it. If you're grilling or pan-frying the chicken, be sure to cook it over medium heat so that it doesn't burn.
  • To make the pitas, you can use store-bought pita bread or you can make your own. If you're making your own pitas, be sure to let them rise for at least an hour before baking them.
  • To assemble the pitas, simply fill each pita with cooked chicken, teriyaki sauce, and your favorite toppings. You can also add a side of rice or salad.
