02 Ingredients
    • 2 tsp. Finely grated ginger
    • 2 tbsp. Rice vinegar
    • 1/4 cup Japanese rice wine
    • 1/2 cup Granulated sugar
    • 1/2 cup Light soy sauce
    • 1 1/2 pounds Boneless, skinless chicken thighs
03 Method
  • Step 1
    Combine the soy sauce, sugar, Japanese rice wine, vinegar, and ginger in a small bowl. Stir until the sugar completely dissolves. Transfer about 6 tablespoons of the sauce to a resealable plastic bag or container and add the chicken.
  • Step 2
    Marinate the chicken in the refrigerator, turning once, for at least 30 minutes, preferably longer.
  • Step 3
    Add the remaining sauce to a small saucepan over medium heat. Bring it to a simmer and cook until the sauce reduces slightly and looks shiny; 3 to 5 minutes. If it reduces too much, add a bit of water to bring it back to a pourable consistency.
  • Step 4
    Cool, and then save this in the refrigerator to use as a sauce for the cooked chicken.
  • Step 5
    Position an oven rack towards the top of the oven, about 6-inches from the broiler. Heat the broiler to high. Line a baking sheet with foil, and then arrange the chicken so that the side that would have had skin is facing down.
  • Step 6
    Spoon a bit of the marinade that was with the chicken on top and discard the rest. Broil for 5 minutes. Stay close to the oven to keep an eye on the chicken as it cooks.
  • Step 7
    Flip the chicken, and then if there are any juices or sauce pooling on the pan, spoon or brush it back onto the chicken. Doing this a few times during cooking helps to add a shiny, browned crust to the chicken.
  • Step 8
    Alternatively, you can steal some of the sauce saved for serving to spoon or brush over the chicken. Broil another 5 to10 minutes or until the outside of the chicken looks brown and caramelized and the inside is cooked through.
  • Step 9
    Meanwhile, reheat the sauce from earlier, adding a bit of water if it seems too thick.
  • Step 10
    To serve, slice the chicken into strips, place onto plates and drizzle with the warmed sauce. Leftover sauce can be stored in the refrigerator for a few weeks.
