Ingredients

  • about 680 g Boneless, skinless chicken thighs
  • 0.5 cup Soy sauce
  • 0.25 cup Brown sugar
  • 1 tbsp Ginger, grated

Original measure retained: its cup/spoon or fluid-volume standard is unspecified. Source temperature equivalents could not be reconciled. Check the original instruction before cooking.

Instructions

  1. 1In a medium bowl, whisk together the 0.5 cup soy sauce, 0.25 cup brown sugar, 1 tbsp grated ginger, 2 cloves minced garlic, 1 tbsp rice vinegar, and 1 tsp sesame oil until the brown sugar is dissolved.
  2. 2Cut the about 680 g boneless, skinless chicken thighs into about 2.5 cm pieces. Add the cut chicken to the bowl with the sauce and toss to coat. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes at room temperature, or cover and refrigerate for up to overnight.
  3. 3Heat an approximately 30 cm skillet over medium-high heat (400°F / 200°C). Add the marinated chicken pieces, reserving any extra marinade in the bowl. Cook the chicken for 8 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it is browned on all sides and cooked through. The internal temperature should reach 74°C.
  4. 4While the chicken is cooking, ensure your 4 cups of cooked white rice and 4 cups of egg-free macaroni salad are ready to serve.
  5. 5Divide the 4 cups of cooked white rice among four plates. Add a generous scoop of the 4 cups of egg-free macaroni salad to each plate.
  6. 6Top the rice and macaroni salad with the cooked teriyaki chicken.
  7. 7Garnish each plate with 1 tbsp chopped green onions.
