Baked Teriyaki Chicken
Baked Teriyaki Chicken showcases bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs cooked in a thickened teriyaki-style sauce made by simmering cornstarch, sugar, soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, garlic, and ginger. The method produces tender, flavorful chicken with a glossy, sticky glaze from the oven-baking process.
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1/4 cup white sugar
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder or one clove minced
- 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
- 4 chicken thighs bone in and skin on
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
- In a large skillet whisk together the cornstarch, sugar, soy sauce, vinegar, garlic, ginger then turn on the heat to medium and continue whisking until the sauce thickens (about 3-4 minutes).
- Add the chicken thighs skin side down, move the pan to the oven, cook for 30 minutes then turn over and cook for an additional 15 minutes.
