In Japan, teriyaki is a mix of soy sauce, sake and the rice wine mirin, which imparts a subtle sweetness. The chicken thighs are usually grilled, then sliced and drizzled with delicious teriyaki sauce. It's also very versatile and you can make it with an Instant Pot Chicken or Slow Cooker.

Heat the oil in a non-stick pan over a medium heat. I've shared other teriyaki chicken recipes like my Grilled Teriyaki Chicken Bowl but this hands down beats the prep and cook time on any other teriyaki chicken I've tried. And yet it tastes just as good! Plus it's such a flavorful sauce so it doesn't even require marinating. When the oil is hot, brown the chicken thighs well on both sides and set them to the side.
