Yakitori Chicken Rice Bowl

Yakitori Chicken (or beef)  is one of my favorite appetizers to get at Asian restaurants. It usually comes on a skewer and can be described as sweet and savory, much like teriyaki. When I saw this recipe in Cooking Light magazine this month I knew I had to make it. Part of what is hard, for me at least, about Asian food is the sauces! Well this sauce was delectable. 

The recipe calls for just the snow peas but it didn't really look like it was going to be enough for 4 people so I went ahead and added the green beans I happened to have on hand. It really complimented the dish well but I forgot to account for the extra water it was going to the sauce. Oops! So the sauce was pretty runny but you know what? It still tasted pretty savory. If nothing else, it made the chicken have a sweet and salty flavor that I might try again to marinate the chicken in.
