Succulent chicken thighs are cooked with Japanese sweet potatoes and tender bok choy in this easy one-pan recipe.
The sweet, sticky glaze is the star of this soy ginger chicken, so definitely serve it over steamed white rice to soak up all the sauce.
This ginger soy glazed chicken is a one-pot wonder that delivers big, bold, Asian-inspired flavors.
Juicy chicken thighs are coated in a sweet, savory, and slightly sticky glaze. The soy sauce and mirin penetrate the chicken as it simmers, giving it tons of flavor while tenderizing the meat.
Nestled amongst the chicken thighs are cubes of starchy Japanese sweet potatoes and tender bok choy. You could omit the veggies and keep this recipe chicken-centric, but I love a meal-in-one that doesn’t require any side dishes.
This dish reminds me of Filipino chicken adobo, but instead of tangy rice vinegar we’re using mirin to amp up the sweet and salty factor.
You can have the chicken and sweet potatoes ready in about 30 minutes, making this a fantastic dinner on busy nights.
Enjoy!
