5 1/2 to 6 pounds chicken thighs |
5 cups low-sodium chicken broth |
2 cups low-sodium soy sauce |
1 cup packed light brown sugar |
3/4 cup mirin |
8 medium garlic cloves, smashed and peeled |

1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper |
5 tablespoons cornstarch dissolved in 5 tablespoons water |
thinly sliced green onions, for garnish |
Directions:
1. Combine all ingredients except cornstarch and green onions in a large pot and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce to low and simmer, covered, turning occasionally, until chicken is tender, about 30 to 35 minutes more. 2. Remove chicken to a serving platter. Remove garlic and ginger and discard. Bring sauce to a boil, skim off excess fat, and cook until reduced slightly, about 10 minutes. Whisk in cornstarch mixture and bring to a boil. Remove from heat, add chicken, turn to coat, and serve chicken with sauce and sliced green onions. |
