Directions:

1. Cut the chicken breast against the grain into bite-sized pieces. See the direction of the grain lines, then cut across them. (Tip #1) 

2. Season with Sake, salt and pepper. Coat with Katakuriko to seal the juice. (Tip #2) 

3. Heat sesame oil in a frying pan. Place the chicken, cover and cook on medium low for 3 minutes. Flip them over then cover again and cook for 3 minutes. 

4. Add the Teriyaki sauce and simmer on low until the sauce thickens. You want to be careful not to burn them at the end 😉
