Steps

1Whisk together soy sauce, mirin, sake, sugar, cornstarch, and water in a small bowl to create the teriyaki sauce.
2Pat chicken thighs dry and cook them skin-side down in a hot pan with vegetable oil until crispy, then flip and cook through.
3Drain excess fat, then pour the prepared teriyaki sauce over the chicken, simmering until the sauce thickens and coats the chicken.
4Slice chicken into strips and serve immediately over hot cooked white rice, garnished with sliced green onion and sesame seeds.
