Instructions
Step 1
Prepare the Marinade:
Step 2
In a large bowl, combine soy sauce, water, sugar, mashed garlic, and sliced ginger. Stir until the sugar has dissolved completely.
Step 3
Marinate the Chicken:
Step 4
Place the chicken thighs in a resealable plastic bag or shallow dish. Pour the teriyaki marinade over the chicken, ensuring that it is fully coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld together.
Step 5
Preheat the Grill:
Step 6
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 375°F to 400°F). Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.
Step 7
Grill the Chicken:
Step 8
Remove the marinated chicken thighs from the refrigerator and let them sit at room temperature for about 10 minutes. This allows for more even cooking.
Step 9
Place the chicken thighs on the preheated grill and cook for 6-8 minutes per side, or until they are cooked through and have reached an internal temperature of 165°F. Use a meat thermometer to ensure accuracy.
Step 10
Baste with Reserved Marinade:
Step 11
While grilling, baste the chicken thighs with the reserved marinade every few minutes to keep them moist and flavorful.
Step 12
Serve and Enjoy:
Step 13
Once the chicken thighs are cooked to perfection, remove them from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes before serving. Garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds, if desired.
