Halal Japanese Food · Manchester & North West

That glossy, sweet-and-savoury teriyaki glaze is one of the UK’s most-loved Japanese flavours — but the classic bottle is off-limits for Muslim kitchens, because real teriyaki is traditionally made with mirin and sake. Think GG changed that. Our Teriyaki Sauce is 100% halal-certified, completely alcohol-free, and the first dedicated halal teriyaki sauce of its kind we stock for Manchester and the wider UK.

What is halal teriyaki sauce?

Teriyaki comes from two Japanese words — teri (shine) and yaki (grilled) — and that shine is the whole point. It’s a soy-based glaze, balanced with sweetness, that reduces down to a sticky, glossy lacquer over chicken, salmon, tofu or vegetables. The flavour is gentle and crowd-pleasing: salty, sweet and deeply savoury all at once.

A halal teriyaki sauce delivers that exact taste with one critical difference — no alcohol. Our recipe is brewed without mirin, sake or wine, so there’s nothing to cook off and nothing to question. It’s ready to brush, drizzle or marinade straight from the tub.

Why real halal teriyaki is so hard to find

Two reasons. First, authentic teriyaki almost always leans on mirin and sake for its body and gloss — both alcoholic — which rules out most supermarket bottles for Muslim cooks. Second, very few teriyaki sauces imported into the UK carry proper halal certification. That has left caterers and home cooks across Manchester, the North West and the rest of the UK choosing between authenticity and their values. Our halal teriyaki removes that compromise entirely.

Easy halal chicken teriyaki

A 20-minute family dinner that shows off the sauce with the fewest possible steps. The glaze does all the work.

Serves 4Prep 5 minCook 15 minHalal

Ingredients

  • 600g halal chicken thighs, boneless
  • 6 tbsp Think GG Halal Teriyaki Sauce
  • 1 tbsp oil
  • 1 tsp toasted sesame seeds
  • 2 spring onions, sliced
  • Steamed rice, to serve

Method

  1. Pat the chicken dry and season lightly with salt and pepper.
  2. Heat the oil in a pan over medium-high. Sear the chicken skin-side down until golden, 5–6 minutes.
  3. Flip and cook through, another 4–5 minutes.
  4. Pour in the teriyaki sauce. Let it bubble and reduce for 2–3 minutes, spooning it over until the chicken is glossy and coated.
  5. Slice, spoon over any glaze left in the pan, and finish with sesame seeds and spring onion. Serve over rice.

Tip: The same sauce works as a 30-minute marinade, and is brilliant brushed onto salmon, prawns, tofu or grilled vegetables.
