4 pieces of smashed garlic
1 inch of sliced ginger
2 tbsp of avocado oil
1 tbsp of sesame oil

Instructions
Prepare the Chicken:
- Pat the chicken thighs dry with paper towels. This helps ensure that they cook evenly and get a nice sear.
Cook the Chicken:
- Heat a large skillet or frying pan over medium-high heat.
- Add 2 tablespoons of avocado oil or any cooking oil to the pan and swirl to coat the bottom evenly.
Pan-Fry the Chicken:
- Once the pan is hot, carefully add the chicken thighs.
- Cook the chicken for about 7 minutes on each side, or until golden brown.
- Remove the cooked chicken and set it aside.
- Use paper towel to remove excess oil.
Teriyaki Sauce:
- In the same pan, saute the fresh garlic and ginger until fragrant.
- Add the sake and let that evaporate for 1 minute.
- Add the cup soy sauce, mirin and sugar.
- When the sugar has dissolved, add the cornstarch slurry.
- In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch and water to create a slurry.
Finish the Teriyaki Chicken
- Add back the chicken and cook for another 5 minutes until the juicy chicken is cooked through.
- Add the sesame oil.
- Garnish with green onions, Sesame Cucumber Salad, and freshly steamed white rice or brown rice.
