Can I cook teriyaki chicken without ginger?

I'm trying to whip up teriyaki chicken tonight but realized my kitchen's fresh out of ginger. Got any pro tips for making this dish pop without that spicy kick? Would love to hear how y'all tweak traditional recipes when you're missing an ingredient or two.

You don't need ginger to make your teriyaki chicken taste great. Just add a bit of citrus zest, like lemon or orange, for a bright and tangy flavor. This little twist will really make your dish pop and leave everyone wanting more. Enjoy your cooking!

Hello! I think cooking teriyaki chicken without ginger is totally doable if you're looking to simplify the recipe or adapt it to your taste preferences! Though ginger adds a distinctive Asian-inspired flavor, you can still achieve a delicious teriyaki sauce using soy sauce, honey, and a touch of vinegar for acidity. It's all about getting creative in the kitchen!
