Ingredients
  

  • 1/4 cup low sodium tamari or soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp Fresh lemon juice
  • 2 tbsp rice wine vinegar
  • 2 tsp garlic minced
  • 1 tsp ginger minced or grated
  • 2 tsp agave syrup or honey
  • 1/2 tsp Cornstarch
  • 1 lbs thin white lean chicken tenders uncooked, boneless
  • 2 scallions chopped
  • 1 tsp sesame seeds

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • In a small sauce pan, combine the tamari, lemon juice, rice wine, garlic, ginger, and agave syrup, and bring to a boil.
  • Mix the cornstarch with a tablespoon of water in a separate bowl. Then pour into the boiling tamari mixture. Bring mixture to a boil once again, and then lower to a simmer for 2-3 minutes until it becomes thick. Remove from heat.
  • Put 2 tablespoons of the thickened tamari mixture to the side. Using a basting brush or the back of a spoon, spread the rest of the mixture on the top of the chicken and place in a glass baking dish.
  • Place the chicken into the oven and cook for 15-20 minutes.
  • Sprinkle the scallions and sesame seeds on top of the chicken and cook 2-3 more minutes under the broiler.
  • Serve immediately with the remaining teriyaki sauce on the side.
