Grilled Teriyaki Chicken

A quick and delicious meal.

Ingredients

2 tablespoons cornstarch

½ cup brown sugar

⅓ cup soy sauce 

2 teaspoons honey

¼ teaspoon ground ginger

¼ teaspoon garlic powder

3 kg boneless, skinless chicken thighs

2 teaspoons salt


Step-by-step instructions

1) In a small saucepan, whisk the cornstarch with 1 cup of cold water. Whisk in the brown sugar, soy sauce, honey, ginger, and garlic powder. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook, stirring frequently, until the sauce has thickened considerably, about 4 minutes. Set aside about ⅓ cup of the sauce for serving.

2) Pat the chicken dry with a paper towel and season it all over with salt. In a large bowl, toss the chicken with the remaining teriyaki sauce until well coated.

3) Preheat the grill to high heat. Transfer the chicken to the grill. Reduce the heat to medium-high, cover the grill, and cook for 5 minutes or until char marks appear. Flip it, baste it with the remaining sauce in the bowl, and cook, turning and basting occasionally, for another 7 to 8 minutes.

4) Transfer the chicken to a serving platter and drizzle with the reserved sauce. Let it rest for about 5 minutes before serving.

*Serve with rice and grilled vegetables
