Ingredients

1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
2 tablespoons brown sugar
2 tablespoons dry sherry
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
2 garlic cloves, crushed with a garlic press or minced
1 teaspoon finely grated fresh ginger
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
2 pounds skinless chicken thighs
2 teaspoons sesame seeds

Directions

Combine the soy sauce, sugar, sherry, vinegar, garlic, ginger and red pepper flakes and stir until the sugar dissolves. Transfer to a resealable plastic bag and add the chicken. Seal the bag and marinate the chicken in the refrigerator, turning once, for 1 hour. The chicken can be marinated for up to 4 hours.

Heat the broiler to high. Arrange the chicken on a broiler pan skin side down and broil until brown and crispy, 8 to 10 minutes. Flip the chicken and broil until almost cooked through, about 8 minutes longer. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and cook until the seeds turn golden brown and the chicken is done, 1 to 2 minutes longer.

Great sauce
Rated: 3 stars out of 5

The sauce was delish, but it was impossible to broil the thighs (raw on the inside, burned on the outside). I ended up baking... it until done. I think next time it will either need to be baked or grilled, and I will probably use chicken breasts too.Read more

So moist!

Great chicken! I left the skin on the thighs and they turned out so moist. This will be a regular dish in our house!

Great Recipe!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

We make Teriyaki Chicken, Pork or Beef all the time and it's delicious! The only thing I would suggest is using Mirin, a... Japanese rice cooking wine that you can usually find in the Asian section of your store in place of the sherry.Read more

Tasty! And also healthy for you too? A dream!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

These turned out very well. I was quite surprised at the wonderful flavor and texture. I did end up baking them instead using... Elliie's other chicken thigh recipe baking instructions, and the chicken came out moist and flavorful. Will definitely want to use this again. Thanks for the great recipe!!! :)Read more
