Teriyaki Chicken Thighs
Sometimes I really luck out and find the exact protein I’m looking for on clearance. My supermarket marks their meat down 50% if the sell-by date is that day. So I buy it and then either cook it that night, or freeze it right away. Last week, I found a value pack of boneless skinless chicken thighs on clearance so I snatched it right up. I knew what I wanted to make with it too.
I’ve had these oven-baked teriyaki chicken thighs pinned for a while, and I finally put it on my menu plan last week. It was kismet that those thighs were on sale that day. The stars aligned perfectly.
Here’s how I made them:
Teriyaki Chicken Thighs
From Dine and Dish
Ingredients:
- 1 Tbsp cornstarch
- 1 Tbsp cold water
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup soy sauce
- 1/4 cup Roasted Garlic Seasoned Rice Vinegar
- 1/4 tsp ground black pepper
- 12 skinless boneless chicken thighs
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
- In a small saucepan over low heat, combine the cornstarch, water, sugar, soy sauce, vinegar, and black pepper. Simmer, stirring frequently, until the sauce is thick and bubbly.
- Remove any excess fat from each thigh using kitchen scissors. Place the thighs in a sprayed 9×13 baking dish and pour half the sauce over the chicken, brushing each piece to make sure it’s coated.
- Bake 30 minutes. Flip thighs over, pour remaining sauce over them, and bake for 30 more minutes.

Prep ahead tips: None! This comes together so quickly and easily that there’s no need for prep. The only thing that takes some time is the ACTUAL cooking time.
This will be dinner tomorrow night. Looks delicious.
