Shoyu Chicken

Step 1

In a mixing bowl, whisk together the first 10 ingredients until brown sugar is dissolved and everything is well combined.

Step 2

Place the chicken thighs in a large, high sided skillet or large pot, and pour sauce over chicken. Turn the chicken over to coat both sides with the sauce.

Step 3

Bring sauce to a boil, over medium-high heat, then reduce heat and simmer partially covered, turning occasionally,  until chicken registers 165 degrees when an instant-read thermometer is inserted near the bone, about 30-35 minutes.

Step 4

Remove the chicken to a serving platter.

Step 5

Add the cornstarch and water mixture to the liquid in the skillet, and bring to a boil, whisking constantly, and cook until thick.

Step 6

Adjust seasoning and pour sauce over chicken. Sprinkle with green onions and serve.
