Teriyaki Chicken
Instructions
Special requirement: none
- In a small bowl, combine soy sauce, sugar, and mirin. Stir until the sugar is fully dissolved.
- Place the chicken thighs in a shallow dish and pour the soy sauce mixture over them. Make sure the chicken is fully coated. Marinate for at least 30 minutes, turning the chicken occasionally.
- Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
- Remove the chicken from the marinade, reserving the marinade for later use.
- Grill the chicken thighs for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until they are cooked through and nicely charred.
- While the chicken is grilling, pour the reserved marinade into a small saucepan. Bring it to a boil over medium heat, then reduce the heat and simmer for about 5 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened slightly.
- Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes.
- Brush the thickened marinade onto the chicken thighs, coating them evenly.
- Serve the teriyaki chicken hot, garnished with sliced green onions and sesame seeds. Enjoy!
