Ingredients

Chicken

  • 2 lbs Chicken Thighs boneless, skinless

Teriyaki Sauce

  • 1/4 cup Coconut Aminos
  • 2 Oranges 1/2 cup juiced
  • 1/2 tsp Sea Salt
  • 1 tbsp Honey
  • 2 tsp Ground Ginger
  • 1 tbsp Arrowroot Starch/Flour

Garnish

  • 4 Green Onions Diced

Instructions

Teriyaki Sauce

  • Mix the coconut aminos, orange juice, honey, sea salt, and ground ginger together in a small sauce pan.
  • Bring to a boil.
  • Reduce heat and continue to simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Place the arrowroot starch/flour in a small bowl. Scoop a tablespoon or two of the sauce liquid into the flower and mix together to make a slurry. Once combined, pour into the rest of the sauce. Mix together.
  • Continue to simmer until thickened, about 5 minutes.

Chicken

  • Cut the chicken thighs into strips - roughly 3 inches long by 1 inch around.
  • Carefully place on the grill grate and grill until cooked through. Be careful to not let them slip through the grates.
  • Place the cooked chicken pieces in a bowl. Pour the sauce over the top and stir to cover all of the pieces evenly.
  • Serve with the green onion sprinkled over the top to garnish.
