First, sear your cubed chicken thighs in a pan until golden on both sides (I like to brown mine with coconut oil). Next, add your soy sauce and brown sugar and bring to a boil in the pan to give it that sweet and salty flavor. Cook until the sauce reduces and coats the chicken.
And that’s it! Serve with rice and dinner’s ready. Why You’ll Love It At just $3 per serving , this budget-friendly chicken teriyaki is packed with flavor and goes from stove to table in less than 30 minutes . Versatile, customizable, and a favorite among kids and adults alike, it’s a good recipe to add to the weeknight repertoire when you’re tired and hungry.
How to Serve It Serve your chicken with fluffy white rice or hearty brown rice, top with green onions, and enjoy with a side of broccoli or green beans . You can’t go wrong with this classic pairing. Or opt for keeping the chicken thighs whole and serve on a toasted brioche bun with crunchy slaw.
If you're serving with rice, give it a remix with classic fried rice or cauliflower fried rice . You could also swap your rice for noodles — soba, ramen, or rice are good choices — and toss in some chopped fresh basil. If you have some more ingredients on hand, bring a taste of the tropics to your teriyaki chicken by adding chopped pineapple and sweet onion .
Or try adding fresh ginger and garlic. Whether you’re doing noodles or rice, a bit of freshly grated ginger and minced garlic makes everything better. What To Sip On Pair this dish with an ice-cold ginger beer, hot ginger or green tea, sparkling cider, or chilled sake .
A lighter-bodied, fresh, and fruity red wine like Gamay is a nice choice, too. And How About Dessert? No well-rounded meal at home is complete without a sweet treat. We go for fudgy brownies topped with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and a sprig of mint, or if we’re feeling adventurous, a slice of creamy matcha cheesecake .
For something really easy, mochi from Trader Joe’s will seal the deal. Have you tried this easy, three-ingredient dinner yet? How do you serve it? Share your ideas with us in the comments below!.
