- 1⁄4 cup tamari soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons chicken stock
- 2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar or 2 tablespoons dry sherry
- 1⁄2 teaspoon sesame oil

We thought this chicken was great, and also really liked the sauce on our rice. I did not use the marinade after it was sitting on the raw chicken for the sauce though - I set aside half of the marinade initially to simmer for the sauce (there was plenty). -
Really good chicken. I added fish sauce to the marinade, but otherwise followed everything exactly. I also marinaded it overnight. I liked how easy it was to make, and it was great served alongside Thai noodles. -
Easy recipe. Served a top of fried rice. -
This marinade/sauce is amazing and perfect. To marinate quicker, I deboned and cut the thighs up into bite size pieces so in just 2 hours it had great flavor. I served it with Jasmine coconut rice and was glad there weren't leftovers because it would have been hard to put our forks down. Thanks for a home run recipe!

This was soooo delicious! If I had chopped up the chicken thighs first, I think the kids would have thought it came from a restaurant. Thanks for a family pleaser.
