Teriyaki Chicken

Teriyaki Chicken

The thing that makes my Teriyaki Chicken with Rice the bomb is homemade teriyaki sauce and boneless skinless chicken thighs.

I absolutely love a good take out Teriyaki rice bowl. For the longest time, I tried making them at home with bottled teriyaki sauce but it just wasn’t the same.

I remembered a friend mentioning that she made her own teriyaki sauce so I picked her brain a little. After consulting with her, looking up a bunch of recipes online, considering my family’s preferences, I came up with this combination of ingredients and measurements.



I will tell you up front that we don’t like ginger, so I cut it way back. You might want to bring it back up to 1/2 – 1 teaspoon. Or try some fresh!

I use boneless skinless chicken thighs because the dark meat really amps up the savory flavor.

I also like to use baby bok choy because since you pay by the pound, it ends up being less expensive than buying an entire head of regular bok choy. You could also substitute cabbage if you prefer.
