1 chicken, cut up or 2 lbs. teriyaki beef or top sirloin steak sliced thin
2 tsp. grated fresh ginger
1 clove garlic, chopped fine
1 medium onion, chopped
1/3 c. soy sauce
1/4 c. sugar

QUICK TERIYAKI MARINADE:

1 c. soy sauce
1 1/2 - 1 1/4 c. brown sugar
1 tsp. oyster sauce
1 tsp. mirin (sweet rice wine)
1 clove chopped garlic
Grated fresh ginger

Mix all ingredients except meat. Stir and cook over low heat until sugar is dissolved. Cool. Pour over meat and marinate for at least 1 hour. Best when cooked over charcoal. Use remaining marinade for basting.

If you use the Quick Teriyaki Marinade, mix together and marinate meat for about 1/2 hour. Best when meat is cooked over charcoal. Baste often.
