Teriyaki Chicken Recipe
Step 1: Prepare the Teriyaki Sauce
- Combine 30g sake, 30g milon, 35g soy sauce, and 15g sugar in a bowl to make the teriyaki sauce.
Step 2: Prepare the Chicken
- Trim the chicken thigh by cutting off excess skin and fat. Make sure to cut the thick parts to ensure even cooking.
Step 3: Heat the Pan
- Turn on the heat to medium-high.
Step 4: Cook the Chicken
- Place the chicken in the pan skin-side down. Press down on the chicken for a few minutes to ensure even cooking.
Step 5: Fry Until Crispy
- Fry the chicken for about 8 minutes without flipping it in the middle. This will help achieve a crispy skin.
Step 6: Flip the Chicken
- Once the skin is nice and golden, carefully flip the chicken and cook for another 2 minutes.
Step 7: Add the Sauce
- Remove excess fat and water from the pan, then add the teriyaki sauce. Stir well and let it simmer until the sauce thickens and becomes sticky.
Step 8: Glaze the Chicken
- Pour the thickened teriyaki sauce over the chicken repeatedly until well coated.
Step 9: Final Touches
- Once the sauce has a beautiful amber color, turn off the heat and remove the chicken from the pan.
Step 10: Serve
- Cut the chicken into bite-sized pieces and serve on a plate with the teriyaki sauce drizzled over it. Enjoy your delicious teriyaki chicken!
