Teriyaki Chicken with Homemade Teriyaki Sauce

I am finally done moving and am so enjoying getting back into the kitchen. We’d been doing a lot of take out food for the last 10 days. We had this Teriyaki ChickenĀ for dinner last night with white rice and peas. Easy and simple but tasted so good.

I made a homemade teriyaki sauce that I’ve used for years. The chicken thighs were marinated in half of the marinade for a couple of hours before cooking them. When I started the chicken thighs cooking I added the remaining marinade to a pan with the marinade the chicken had been marinating in together. I brought it all to a boil and cooked it for another 5 minutes before adding the cornstarch to thicken the sauce. You’ve got to boil the marinade that the chicken was in so that it is safe to eat. Don’t ever not boil it because the juices from the meats have mingled with the marinade and it could make you sick if you don’t.

I used boneless and skinless chicken thighs for this recipe. If you decide to do chicken breasts instead cut the cooking time to about 20 minutes from start to finish
