Teriyaki Glazed Chicken Recipe
Teriyaki Glazed Chicken consists of boneless, skinless chicken breasts baked in a thick, glossy sauce made from soy sauce, brown sugar, cider vinegar, sriracha, garlic, and ginger. The sauce is simmered to thicken, then brushed onto the chicken during baking to provide a sticky, flavorful glaze with a balance of sweet, savory, and subtle heat.
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon water cold
- 1/2 cup white sugar
- 1/2 cup soy sauce
- 1/4 cup cider vinegar
- 2 tablespoons sriracha
- 1 clove garlic minced
- 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper ground
- 12 boneless skinless chicken breasts
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
- In a medium saucepan over low heat, combine the cornstarch, cold water, sugar, soy sauce, vinegar, sriracha, garlic, ginger and ground black pepper. Let simmer, stirring frequently, until sauce thickens and bubbles.
- Place chicken pieces in a lightly greased 9x13 inch baking dish. Brush chicken with the sauce. Turn pieces over, and brush again.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Turn pieces over, and bake for another 15 minutes, until no longer pink and juices run clear.
Notes
- Brush the sauce on chicken pieces thoroughly before baking and turn halfway to coat both sides evenly.
- Ensure chicken is cooked through with no pink inside and juices run clear after the baking time.
- The thick sauce simmers until it bubbles and coats the back of a spoon before application.
- Serve with rice or steamed vegetables to balance the flavorful glaze with mild sides.
