Well, I'll try and post this properly one more time. Me and Xenforo don't see eye to eye. I hope everyone had a good Father's Day. I did this cook last week and am just now getting around to posting it. Saw a Teriyaki chicken recipe that looked good so I thought I'd give it a try, Keeping with the theme I grilled up some Teriyaki Green Beans. I was going to make some rice but I had a couple of older russets that needed to be cooked so that's what I did. So much for the theme. Anyway, here's a few pictures.

The recipe called for boneless skinless thighs but sticking by our freezer purge we only had the good old bone in with skin. Went with that. I marinated these thighs for seven hours in soy sauce, pineapple juice, pineapple chunks, brown sugar, chopped garlic, rice vinegar and sesame oil.
Got them on some high heat for around 1-2 minutes each side.

Watched them very closely and then transferred to cool side.

Melted some butter in a large skillet. Sauteed the beans along with a shallot and some mushrooms for around 5 minutes. Threw in the garlic towards the end.

JJ did the aforementioned potatoes.

Thighs riding around 165. I reserved the marinade and boiled it. Added some cornstarch and water to thicken. Basted the chicken before pulling off the grill.

Added the teriyaki sauce and let it roll another few minutes.

Plated it up and sprinkled sesame seeds on the beans.

Well, that's it. It was a pretty darned good dinner. Better get rolling on my outside work. It's going to be a hot one here today. Thank you for looking everyone!

Looks great, Cliff! Love that signature color on the thighs that you get when you've marinated in something with sugar! Tasty meal, sir!
