Time 2h15m

Number Of Ingredients 5

4 -6 chicken pieces (skinned thighs and legs are best!)
1 cup kikoman soy sauce
1 1/2-2 cups dark brown sugar (to taste)
4 garlic cloves
2 tablespoons freshly grated ginger

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350°F
  • Peel and mince garlic.
  • Mix soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic and ginger until sugar has dissolved. Put chicken in 9x13 pan and pour teriyaki sauce over it. Cover tightly with foil and bake for at least one hour or until chicken is cooked through. I bake it for about 2 1/2 hours and the chicken is falling off the bone! I usually double the sauce for extra on rice.
  • *This is even better if you marinate the chicken for at least 2 hours in the sauce before cooking - especially before grilling.
  • **If cooking in an electric roaster, make sure you have enough sauce to cover chicken. Bake covered at 325°F for about 4 hours.

CHICKEN TERIYAKI



Chicken Teriyaki image

Teriyaki is derived from the Japanese root words teri, to shine, and yaki, to broil or grill. That's the way traditional teriyaki looks: shiny and incised with grill marks. In Japan, teriyaki is a mix of soy sauce, sake and the rice wine mirin, which imparts a subtle sweetness. The teriyaki found throughout Seattle, of which this is an adaptation, is a bit more showy. Cooks sweeten with white sugar and pineapple juice. They thicken with cornstarch. Ginger and garlic go into the mix because of the Korean ancestry of many cooks. It is not at all traditional, but it is simple to prepare and addictive to eat. Be sure to plan ahead as you do need to marinate the chicken before cooking. An overnight stay in the fridge is ideal, but many readers have been happy with a quick marinade of an hour or so.

Time 30m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup soy sauce
1 cup granulated sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons brown sugar
6 cloves garlic, crushed in a press
2 tablespoons grated fresh ginger
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 3-inch cinnamon stick
1 tablespoon pineapple juice
8 skinless, boneless chicken thighs
2 tablespoons cornstarch

Steps:

  • In a small saucepan, combine all ingredients except cornstarch and chicken. Bring to boil over high heat. Reduce heat to low and stir until sugar is dissolved, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool. Discard cinnamon stick and mix in 1/2 cup water.
  • Place chicken in a heavy-duty sealable plastic bag. Add soy sauce mixture, seal bag, and turn to coat chicken. Refrigerate for at least an hour, ideally overnight.
  • Remove chicken and set aside. Pour mixture into a small saucepan. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to low. Mix cornstarch with 2 tablespoons water and add to pan. Stir until mixture begins to thicken, and gradually stir in enough water (about 1/2 cup) until sauce is the consistency of heavy cream. Remove from heat and set aside.
  • Preheat a broiler or grill. Lightly brush chicken pieces on all sides with sauce, and broil or grill about 3 minutes per side. While chicken is cooking, place sauce over high heat and bring to a boil, then reduce heat to a bare simmer, adding water a bit at a time to keep mixture at a pourable consistency. To serve, slice chicken into strips, arrange on plates, and drizzle with sauce.
