RECIPES TIPS
- It will be best to get the chicken thigh with skin on but (without bone), do not replace with chicken breast, it will be too dry and easy to shred when cooking with Thermomix®.
- For extra crispy skin, you can pan sear the chicken with the skin side on high heat for a few minutes or air fry it for 2-3 minutes 190ºC.
WHAT ELSE TO SERVE WITH TERIYAKI CHICKEN
For this recipes I served with soft boiled eggs. You can easily change it up with some steamed broccoli, pop it into the Varoma tray to steam during the last 10 minutes of steaming rice. Drizzle all of the extra sauce over everything in your bowl for ultimate flavour.
You can also top your chicken with sesame seeds and/or spring onion and enjoy a Teriyaki Chicken Bowl in the comfort of your own home!
