For the sauce:

Use half for the marinade, save the rest to thicken later.
When ready, warm the reserved sauce in a small pan on low heat.
Add the cornstarch mix slowly, whisking until thickened.
For the salmon (or chicken):
Cut chicken thighs into 3 chunks if using.
Marinate fillets in the sauce for 30 minutes.
Heat a splash of oil in a large skillet (don’t crowd it!).
Cook salmon fillets skin side down (or chicken) for 3–4 minutes each side, until nicely coloured and crispy.
Serve:
Drizzle with the thickened teriyaki sauce, pile on chopped spring onions and sesame seeds.
Eat like you mean it.
