Ingredients

  • 6 bone-in skin-on chicken thighs, patted dry
  • Salt and pepper
  • 1/2 cup tamari sauce
  • 1/3 cup sugar
  • 2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried orange peel
  • 1/4 cup orange juice
  • 2 teaspoons cornstarch
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seed
  • Green onions, cut on the diagonal, if desired

Instructions

  • Step 
    1
    Heat oven to 450°F. Season chicken with salt and pepper on both sides. Place chicken, skin side up, on broiler pan. Bake 25 minutes.
  • Step 
    2
    Meanwhile, in 1-quart saucepan, heat tamari sauce, sugar, vinegar and peel to boiling, stirring to dissolve sugar. Reduce heat to simmer. Beat in orange juice and cornstarch with whisk until well blended. Continue cooking until mixture thickens to glaze-like consistency. Remove from heat.
  • Step 
    3
    After chicken has baked 25 minutes, set oven control to broil. Broil 5 minutes longer to crisp skin on chicken (leave oven door partially open to monitor broiling closely. If chicken begins to crisp sooner than 5 minutes, remove from oven.)
  • Step 
    4
    Pour sauce over chicken. Sprinkle with sesame seed; garnish with green onions.
