Ingredients
- ●4 chicken thighs, bone-in and skin-on
- ●1/2 cup soy sauce
- ●1/4 cup mirin
- ●1/4 cup sake
- ●1/4 cup brown sugar
- ●2 cloves garlic, minced
- ●1 tsp fresh ginger, grated
- ●1 tbsp sesame oil
- ●1 tbsp cornstarch
- ●2 tbsp water
- ●2 green onions, sliced (for garnish)
- ●sesame seeds (for garnish)
Instructions
- 1In a bowl, mix together soy sauce, mirin, sake, brown sugar, garlic, ginger, and sesame oil to create the teriyaki marinade.
- 2Place the chicken thighs in a resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish and pour the marinade over the chicken. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 hours for more flavor.
- 3Preheat your grill or oven to medium-high heat (about 375°F/190°C).
- 4Remove the chicken from the marinade, reserving the marinade for later use.
- 5Grill the chicken thighs skin-side down for about 6-7 minutes, then flip and cook for another 6-7 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). If using an oven, place the thighs on a baking sheet and roast for about 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through.
- 6While the chicken is cooking, pour the reserved marinade into a small saucepan and bring to a boil over medium heat.
- 7In a small bowl, mix cornstarch and water to create a slurry. Once the marinade is boiling, add the slurry to the saucepan and stir until the sauce thickens, about 1-2 minutes.
- 8Remove the chicken from the grill or oven and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.
- 9Serve the chicken thighs drizzled with the thickened teriyaki sauce, garnished with sliced green onions and sesame seeds.
