Most Delicious Teriyaki Chicken

This easy teriyaki chicken is everyones favorite stir-fry dinner. Its made special tossing chicken thighs with my homemade teriyaki sauce, and comes together in just 20 minutes! Watch the video below to see how I make this in my kitchen!

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ pounds boneless skinless chicken thighs (diced into 1-inch cubes)
  • 1 tablespoon avocado oil
  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped ginger
  • 2 cloves garlic (minced)
  • salt and pepper (to taste)
  • ¼ cup tamari soy sauce (or coconut aminos)
  • ¼ cup sake
  • ¼ cup mirin
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • sesame seeds
  • sliced green onion

Instructions

  1. Make the teriyaki sauce. In a medium sized bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, sake, mirin, and honey until everything is well combined. Set this aside.
  2. Stir fry the chicken. Heat the oil in a large saute pan or wok over medium-high heat. Add in the chicken and let it cook for 1 to 2 minutes on one side, until nice and golden. Season the chicken with salt and pepper. Then, flip it over and cook the other side for another 1 to 2 minutes.
  3. Toss together. Give the sauce a quick whisk and add it to the pan along with the minced ginger and garlic. Stir the sauce with the chicken and let it simmer for 4 to 5 minutes until the sauce has reduced and thickened.
  4. Serve on top of a fresh bed of rice and a side of steamed broccoli. Garnish with diced green onions and sesame seeds.
