Cooking Tips

• If you don't have a grill, you can cook the chicken thighs in a pan or bake them in the oven.
• Make sure to let the chicken rest before slicing or serving to allow the juices to redistribute.

Storage and Serving

• Leftover teriyaki glazed chicken can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
• To reheat, place the chicken in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10-15 minutes, or until heated through.
• Serve the teriyaki glazed chicken as a main dish with steamed rice and vegetables, or use it as a filling for sandwiches or wraps.
