10-Minute Easy Teriyaki Chicken

Teriyaki Chicken with broccoli is a super easy chicken recipe cooked in 10-minutes with no marinading needed! Crispy and juicy skinless chicken thighs stir-fried and swimming in a beautiful flavoured homemade teriyaki sauce. A hint of garlic adds a twist on a traditional Japanese Teriyaki. Better than bottled sauce!

1.3 pounds (600 grams) skinless boneless chicken thighs, (cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces)
1 tablespoon cooking oil
1/4 cup soy sauce ((light soy sauce preferred))
3 tablespoons light brown sugar ((or white granulated sugar))
3 tablespoons cooking Sake (((rice wine vinegar or apple cider vinegar))
2 tablespoons Mirin ((optional — white wine or dry sherry can be substituted))
1 tablespoon sesame oil, (optional (adds a wonderful flavour))
2 teaspoons minced garlic ((2 cloves garlic)*)
1 shallot/green onion stem, (sliced to garnish)
4 cups broccoli florets, (lightly steamed)
1 teaspoon cornstarch ((or corn flour) mixed with 2 teaspoons water (ONLY IF NEEDED))
Heat cooking oil in a large pan over medium heat. Stir fry chicken, stirring occasionally until lightly browned and crisp.

In a small jug or bowl whisk together the soy sauce, sugar, Sake/vinegar, Mirin and sesame oil to combine. Set aside.
