Last night I made Chicken Teriyaki. I cooked the thighs in a pan with a little oil first, making sure to brown them and cook through. Removed from the pan.
Then added homemade teriyaki sauce (equal parts soy sauce, mirin, sake and a little water. Boiled that down until it was thick. Added the thighs back.
It was excellent with rice and broccoli. Leftovers tonight.
I do a stripped-down version of this that is still very tasty…just do the thighs with herbes de Provence, salt, and pepper at 350 for 50 min to an hour. Really good, but easy enough for a weeknight
