Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 boneless skinless chicken thighs
  • 1 cup low sodium soy sauce
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup rice vinegar
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 4–5 large cloves garlic, minced
  • 3 teaspoons freshly grated ginger
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 3 green onions, chopped for garnish

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together soy sauce, brown sugar, rice vinegar, garlic, ginger, and water until well combined.
  2. Pour half of the marinade over the chicken thighs in a resealable bag or another bowl and let marinate for at least 2 hours (overnight preferred).
