Teriyaki Chicken with broccoli is a super easy chicken recipe cooked in 10-minutes with no marinading needed! Crispy and juicy skinless chicken thighs stir-fried and swimming in a beautiful flavoured homemade teriyaki sauce. A hint of garlic adds a twist on a traditional Japanese Teriyaki. Better than bottled sauce!

Ingredients

1 tsp. cornstarch (or corn flour) mixed with 2 teaspoons water
4 cups broccoli florets, lightly steamed
1 shallot/green onion stem, sliced to garnish
2 tsp. minced garlic (2 cloves garlic)
1 tbsp. sesame oil, optional (adds a wonderful flavour)
12 tbsp. Mirin (optional -- white wine or dry sherry can be substituted)
3 tbsp. cooking Sake ((rice wine vinegar or apple cider vinegar)
3 tbsp. light brown sugar (or white granulated sugar)
1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
1 tbsp. cooking oil
1.3 pounds (600 grams) skinless boneless chicken thighs, cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces

Method

01

Heat cooking oil in a large pan over medium heat. Stir fry chicken, stirring occasionally until lightly browned and crisp.
02

In a small jug or bowl whisk together the soy sauce, sugar, Sake/vinegar, Mirin and sesame oil to combine. Set aside.
03

Add the garlic to the centre of the pan and saute until lightly fragrant (about 30 seconds). Pour in the sauce and allow to cook, while stirring, until the sauce thickens into a beautiful shiny glaze (about 2-3 minutes).
04

Add in the steamed broccoli. Garnish with green onion (or shallot) slices and serve over steamed rice.
