Braised Chicken Teriyaki Recipes

BRAISED CHICKEN TERIYAKI

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325'F Season chicken pieces completely with salt and pepper
• Set a dutch oven over medium-high, heat peanut oil in pan. Once oil is up to browning temperature brown chicken pieces on all sides. That's about 3-5 minutes per side to get good color. Remove chicken from pan and set aside.
• Lower temperature to about medium. Deglaze pan with soy sauce and rice wine. Scrape all the brown bits off the bottom of the pan nice and good.
• Add garlic to pan and simmer until translucent. Add ginger.
• Allow the liquid in the pan to reduce by about half then add butter. Melt butter completely.
• Add remaining ingredients to the pan and mix them together thoroughly. Place chicken back into pan and place in the preheated oven, uncovered. Braise chicken for about 45 minutes. Side note: while the chicken is braising, this is a good time to start on the rice and veggies if you are planning on having them as a side.
• Remove pan from oven, and remove chicken from pan and set aside covered. Put pan back over medium high heat on the stove top and reduce liquid in pan down until thick and sticky. This will take about 7 minutes. You can use cornstarch to hurry the process along, but I wouldn't personally because the raw flour flavor might be left behind. Pour sticky teriyaki sauce back over chicken and serve.

BROILED TERIYAKI CHICKEN THIGHS

Steps:

• Combine coconut aminos, rice wine vinegar, brown sugar, ginger, garlic, and sesame oil in a 1-gallon resealable bag. Carefully squeeze the bag to mix the contents. Add chicken thighs and refrigerate for 3 hours.
• Place an oven rack near the top of the oven, so the chicken will be about 4 inches from the broiler element. Preheat the broiler.
• Line a jelly roll pan with aluminum foil. Remove chicken thighs from the marinade, allowing excess to drip into the bag, and reserve. Place chicken pieces in a single layer on the prepared pan.
• Broil for 6 to 7 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 160 degrees F (71 degrees C).
• While chicken is under the broiler, pour the marinade into a 12-inch skillet and bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes. Remove from heat.
• Combine cornstarch and water in a small bowl, stirring until any lumps disappear. Add to the skillet, bring to a boil over medium heat, and stir constantly until thickened. Add broiled chicken thighs to the skillet and cook for 2 to 3 minutes per side, until an internal temperature of 165 degrees F (74 degrees C) is reached.
• Serve with hot rice, and garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds.

EMERIL'S BRAISED CHICKEN THIGHS

Steps:

• Season the chicken all over with the Essence and 1/2 teaspoon of the salt. Place the 1/2 cup flour in a small bowl, and quickly dredge both sides of each thigh in the flour, shaking to remove any excess. Set aside.
• Heat 1 teaspoon of the olive oil in a 10- to 12-inch flameproof casserole or saute pan over medium-high heat. Add 2 tablespoons of the butter, and when it has melted, place the chicken, skin side down, in the pan. Brown for 2 minutes on each side. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.
• Add the remaining 1 tablespoon butter to the pan, and when it has melted, add the onions, garlic, thyme bundle or rosemary sprigs, remaining 1/2 teaspoon then whisk in the chicken stock and increase the heat to high. Return the chicken, skin side down, to the pan, and bring the stock to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium-low, cover the pan with a heavy, tight-fitting lid, and simmer for 15 minutes.
• Uncover the pan, stir the bottom of the pan to prevent scorching, and turn the chicken skin side up. Cover the pan, and simmer for 20 minutes longer.
• Stir the bottom of the pan a final time, re-cover, and simmer for 20 more minutes.
• Remove the pan from the heat and discard the herb bundle or rosemary sprigs. Transfer the chicken to a serving platter. Add the parsley to the sauce, stir to combine, and then spoon the sauce over the chicken. Serve with steamed white rice.
