low-carb teriyaki sauce (or teriyaki marinade)

I did a google search for sugar-free teriyaki sauce, and low-carb teriyaki sauce. Having found a suitable recipe, I had to bump the quantities up a bit and doctor it a tad.

Low-Carb Teriyaki Sauce

  • 1 cup soy sauce (Aloha brand, of course)
  • 1/4 cup sesame oil
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1/4 cup rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon garlic powder
  • 1 tablespoon ginger powder
  • 6 packets Splenda (or Nutrasweet)

Directions

Mix it all up. A lot.

If you're wondering why I am using powdered garlic and ginger, the reason is simple. I made this on a whim, and did not have fresh ginger available. Having used powdered ginger, why not use powdered garlic, too?

The taste is lighter than a typical teriyaki sauce. This makes for a great marinade. I used it to marinate thinly sliced roast pork, and it was the best teri pork I had. The first night, it marinated for a half-hour. The next night of course, well, it marinated overnight. Both nights it came out great. Fry up in a pan, serve as you see fit. I found teri pork over raw bean sprouts to be an excellent low-carb dinner.
