Chicken Thighs marinated in a homemade teriyaki sauce. Pan fried and smothered with the remaining sauce, served with rice.
Ingredients
  • 1 package boneless and skinless chicken thighs
  • 3 - 4 green onions
  • 2 teaspoons vegetable oil
  • Teriyaki Sauce
  • 1/2 cup soy sauce
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
  • 2 teaspoons grated ginger
  • 3 garlic cloves minced
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 3 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1/2 teaspoon roasted sesame oil
Instructions
  1. Make the marinade. Add the soy sauce, brown sugar, ginger, garlic and rice wine vinegar to a saucepan. Bring to a boil. When the brown sugar is melted remove the marinade from the heat and cool.
  2. Put the chicken thighs in a pan to marinade them. Pour half of the marinade over the thighs. Refrigerate for 2 hours, turning the thighs one time.
  3. Add the chicken thighs to a pan with the oil. Brown well on each side.
  4. Combine the leftover marinate with the other half of the marinade in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil and cook for 5 minutes. Combine the cornstarch with the water. Stir into the sauce, stirring until thick. Add the roasted sesame oil.
  5. Add the sauce back in for the last 5 minutes of cooking time. Remove from heat and top with the chopped green onions.
