Instructions: How to Cook Jidori Chicken

1. In a bowl, mix together soy sauce, mirin, garlic, and ginger to create the marinade.
2. Place the chicken thighs in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Make sure the chicken is well coated. Marinate for at least 30 minutes, or overnight for best results.

4. Cook the chicken for about 5-6 minutes on each side, or until cooked through and golden brown.
5. Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the skillet and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.
6. Drizzle any remaining marinade over the sliced chicken and garnish with sesame seeds and chopped green onions.
7. Serve the Jidori Chicken hot with steamed rice and your favorite vegetables. Enjoy!
