POULTRY ESSENTIALS: TWO METHOD TERIYAKI CHICKEN

Poultry Essentials: Two Method Teriyaki Chicken image

This recipe uses a two-step method. The chicken will spend some time in the slow cooker, and finish up in the oven. There are probably a few ways to do this, but this method gave me the best juicy chicken, with the best flavors. So, you ready... Let's get into the kitchen.

Ingredients

PLAN/PURCHASE
2 - 4 pound(s) whole chicken, cut in half
1/2 cup(s) mirin, plain variety
1/4 cup(s) sake, plain variety
1/4 cup(s) coconut sugar
1/4 cup(s) tamari sauce
1/4 cup(s) ponzu sauce
1 1/2 tablespoon(s) dehydrated onions, ground to a powder
1 tablespoon(s) ginger powder

Steps:

PREP/PREPARE
I tried this recipe using several techniques. I finally came up with a Slow Cooker/Oven method. In the first part of the recipe, the chicken spends 4 hours in the slow cooker, soaking up all those yummy sauces. It is then finished up in the oven, until it is baked, crispy, and golden brown. FYI: The sauce is amazing.
Gather your Ingredients (mise en place).
Cut the backbone out of the chicken, then freeze and use for making stock, or discard.
Cut through the breasts until you have two chicken halves.
Store one half in the fridge, and use within the next day or two, or freeze it for up to 2 months.
Whisk the remainder of the ingredients together.
Place the half chicken into the bowl of your slow cooker, or instant pot, and pour in the sauce.
Set the slow cooker/instant pot to low, and allow to cook for 4 hours.
Chef's Note: This first part of the cooking will make the chicken moist, and juicy, and help it to absorb that yummy sauce.
After four hours, remove the chicken from the slow cooker, then take the sauce and put it into a defatter.
Place the defatted sauce into a small saucepan, and lightly boil until reduced by about thirty percent.
Place a rack in the middle position, and preheat the oven to 425f (220c).
Add the chicken to an ovenproof pan, that it just big enough to hold it.
Pour the reduced sauce over the top.
Add to the preheated oven, and bake until the chicken is fully cooked, and the sauce thickens, about 25 - 30 minutes.
PLATE/PRESENT
Serve over rice with some nice crusty bread to sop up that amazing sauce. Enjoy.
Keep the faith, and keep cooking.

Ingredients

1/4 cup soy sauce
1/3 cup freshly squeezed orange juice (from 1 1/2 medium or 1 large oranges)
3 Tbsp honey
1 tsp finely grated fresh ginger
1 tsp sesame oil
1 1/2 to 2 lbs about 6-7 medium boneless skinless chicken thighs, trimmed of fat
1 Tbsp oil (I use light olive oil)
1 1/2 Tbsp unsalted butter
Green onion and sesame seeds for garnish (optional)

Steps:

In a large bowl, whisk together all marinade ingredients: 1/4 cup soy sauce, 1/3 cup orange juice, 3 Tbsp honey, 1 tsp ginger and 1 tsp sesame oil.
Cut chicken into 1-inch pieces and place into marinade. Stir and cover with plastic wrap and marinate on the counter 20 min.
Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat. Add 1 Tbsp olive oil. Remove chicken from marinade with a slotted spoon, reserving marinade in the bowl. Add chicken to the hot pan and sauté, stirring occasionally until golden and cooked through (5 min).
Remove pan from heat and transfer chicken to a bowl.
Pour reserved marinade into the pan, add 1 1/2 Tbsp butter and place back over medium/high heat. Bring to a boil stirring constantly until slightly thickened (1 min) then remove from heat. Add chicken back to the pan and stir to combine. Serve over hot buttery white rice garnished with fresh green onion and a sprinkle of sesame seeds if desired.
