Teriyaki Chicken

Oh, comfort food. Salty and slightly sweet. Paired with roasted carrots and sticky rice, this is heaven on a snowy evening.

1 cut up chicken
1/2 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup water
1 clove garlic
1/4 cup oil
1 small onion chopped fine
2 teaspoons ginger
2 tablespoons brown sugar

The chicken should marinade at least 4 hours. Bake in 350 degrees F oven for an hour.

Tonight I’m using frozen boneless and skinless thighs and breasts from Aldi’s. On a good day I half the ground ginger and use about an ounce of fresh slivers.

I usually bake it in an open glass pan, but for the first time I’m using a covered enameled cast iron oven.

This recipe tastes a lot like the Vietnamese catfish claypot I had at The Slanted Door in San Francisco.
