This Glazed Teriyaki Chicken Delight is a savory dish featuring succulent chicken marinated in a flavorful blend of soy sauce, ginger, and garlic, then roasted to perfection.
Ingredients
2 pieces chicken halves
1/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup soy sauce
1 tablespoon fresh ginger
2 cloves garlic
Method
Start by patting the chicken halves dry with paper towels, then lay them cut-side down in a 9x13-inch baking dish.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the sugar, soy sauce, freshly grated ginger, and minced garlic until the mixture is smooth. Pour this marinade over the chicken, ensuring every piece is thoroughly coated. Cover the dish and let it marinate in the fridge for at least 3 hours.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to get ready for roasting.
Place the marinated chicken in the oven and roast until the meat is cooked through and no longer pink near the bone, which usually takes about 1 hour. Use an instant-read thermometer to ensure the thickest part of the thigh reaches 165°F (74°C). After cooking, let the chicken rest for a few minutes before slicing it into pieces for serving.
