Broiled Teriyaki Chicken Thighs image

Make your own teriyaki sauce and marinate these chicken thighs before they go under the broiler. The marinade safely boils to become the base for a tasty glaze as the thighs broil. Serve with sides of fluffy steamed rice and some sauteed zucchini or snow peas for a delicious, quick dinner.

Time 3h30m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 cup coconut aminos
2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
1 tablespoon brown sugar, or more to taste
2 teaspoons grated ginger
2 teaspoons minced garlic
2 teaspoons sesame oil
3 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs
1 tablespoon cornstarch
2 teaspoons water
3 cups cooked rice
1 sliced green onions
1 teaspoon sesame seeds

Steps:

  • Combine coconut aminos, rice wine vinegar, brown sugar, ginger, garlic, and sesame oil in a 1-gallon resealable bag. Carefully squeeze the bag to mix the contents. Add chicken thighs and refrigerate for 3 hours.
  • Place an oven rack near the top of the oven, so the chicken will be about 4 inches from the broiler element. Preheat the broiler.
  • Line a jelly roll pan with aluminum foil. Remove chicken thighs from the marinade, allowing excess to drip into the bag, and reserve. Place chicken pieces in a single layer on the prepared pan.
  • Broil for 6 to 7 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 160 degrees F (71 degrees C).
  • While chicken is under the broiler, pour the marinade into a 12-inch skillet and bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes. Remove from heat.
  • Combine cornstarch and water in a small bowl, stirring until any lumps disappear. Add to the skillet, bring to a boil over medium heat, and stir constantly until thickened. Add broiled chicken thighs to the skillet and cook for 2 to 3 minutes per side, until an internal temperature of 165 degrees F (74 degrees C) is reached.
  • Serve with hot rice, and garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds.

I'm not a big fan of teriyaki sauce, but I thought I'd give this recipe a try. I was pleasantly surprised! The chicken was so juicy and flavorful, and the sauce was actually really good.

The chicken was a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more spices next time.

I followed the recipe exactly and the chicken came out dry and overcooked. I think I should have broiled it for less time.
