Whew can you believe it’s Thursday again? This week’s Craving Ellie in My Belly recipe was chosen by Jessica at Johnstone’s Vin Blanc and can be found on page #209 of “The Food You Crave”, by Ellie Krieger.
As usual I won’t give you the exact recipe but basically you make a Teriyaki sauce marinade out of soy sauce, brown sugar, dry sherry, rice vinegar, garlic, ginger and red pepper. Then you put bone-in, but skinless, chicken thighs into it for at least 30 minutes or up to a few hours in the fridge. Then you remove the thighs from the marinade and broil them on each side and sprinkle with sesame seeds to cook for a final couple of minutes. I found that I need to cook them longer than the recipe called for which was 8-10 minutes on each side and a final two after the sesame seeds were added. This left them still raw in the middle so I baked them for another 15 at 350F to ensure doneness.
They were good- a nice variation to add to the repertoire of chicken dishes. Rick loves food with Asian flavors above all other food so he was definitely a fan. The sesame seeds add a very nice crunch to the chicken.
Head on over to the Craving Ellie site for links to the other Craving Ellie crew and their Teriyaki experiences.

That is one great looking meal you are serving up there! When can I come to dinner? 🙂 I loved this recipe but I think I should have marinated longer.
Love the recipe. Your dinner looks good.
Looks great! You can’t go wrong with those flavours!
this is the second japanese recipe my eyes are drooling today!! i guess i will have to make some teriyaki tonight too 🙂 yum
Glad that you liked this — we thought it was a great recipe! I will turn to this marinade again and again. Yours looks great!
I loved loved this recipe and will definitely be making it again and again!
It was a great recipe. One that I will use again and again. I had to bake mine a little longer than the book stated too.
Your chicken looks great, it looks like a nice healthy meal. I thought some people may end up with raw chicken so I baked mine first and then broiled at the end. Nicely done!
