Ingredients

    Marinade
    • 1/3 cup brown sugar
    • 3 tbsp light soy sauce
    • 2 cloves garlic, minced
    • 1 tbsp grated fresh ginger
    • 2 tbsp canola oil, divided
    Chicken
    • 8 boneless, skinless chicken thighs
    • 2 cups Minute® Jasmine Rice

      Step 1

    • Whisk together brown sugar, soy sauce, garlic, ginger and 1 tablespoon oil in a small bowl.

      Step 2

    • Place chicken thighs in a zip-top bag or shallow dish, cover with marinade. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 1 day.

      Step 3

    • Heat 1/2 teaspoon of oil in a large skillet set over medium heat.

      Step 4

      Step 5

    • Pour marinade into the skillet and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium and whisk until reduced to a thick glaze, about 2 minutes.

      Step 6

    • Meanwhile, heat rice according to package directions.

      Step 7

    • Remove skillet from heat and add chicken. Coat chicken with glaze.

      Step 8
