Craving a delicious Asian-inspired dish with a touch of Aussie flair? Look no further than Teriyaki Chicken made the Australian way — simple, flavorful, and perfect for any home cook. This easy recipe, influenced by the vibrant cooking style of Chef Scott Biffin, combines classic Japanese flavors with Australian culinary sensibilities for a dish that’s both comforting and exciting.
To begin, choose fresh, boneless chicken thighs or breasts — chicken thighs are juicier and more flavorful. Marinate the chicken in a mixture of soy sauce, honey (or brown sugar), garlic, ginger, and a splash of apple cider vinegar. For a true Aussie twist, add a hint of Vegemite or a dash of Worcestershire sauce to deepen the umami flavor — trust us, it works!
Once marinated for at least 30 minutes (or overnight for richer flavor), grill or pan-fry the chicken until it’s golden brown and cooked through. Simmer the remaining marinade separately to create a glossy glaze. Brush the glaze over the cooked chicken, letting it caramelize slightly for that irresistible sticky-sweet finish.
Serve your Teriyaki Chicken over steamed jasmine rice or a bed of grilled vegetables for a wholesome meal. You can also slice it up and use it in wraps, rice bowls, or even summer salads.
Chef Scott Biffin’s approach to this dish makes it accessible and fun, even for beginners. By combining simple ingredients and bold flavors, this Australian-style Teriyaki Chicken brings global taste right to your kitchen. It’s a go-to weeknight meal that will quickly become a family favorite — easy to make, hard to forget!
