Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 200°C (390°F) and line a baking tray with parchment paper or lightly grease it with cooking spray oil to prevent sticking.
In a shallow bowl, crack the egg and beat it lightly with a fork. Add the 2 tablespoons of teriyaki sauce to the beaten egg and mix thoroughly until well combined.
In another shallow dish, combine the bread crumbs and finely chopped fresh parsley. Mix well to ensure an even distribution of parsley.
Take each chicken thigh and dip it into the egg-teriyaki mixture, making sure it is completely coated. Allow any excess to drip off back into the bowl.
5. Bread the Chicken Thighs:
Transfer the egg-coated chicken thigh into the bread crumb mixture. Gently press the bread crumbs onto the chicken to ensure an even coating on all sides. Repeat this step for each chicken thigh.
Place the crumb-coated chicken thighs onto the prepared baking tray, making sure they are spaced evenly and not touching. This allows for even cooking and crispiness.
Give a short spray of cooking oil over the tops of the bread crumbed chicken thighs. This will help them crisp up nicely in the oven.
Place the tray in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken thighs are golden brown and cooked through. To ensure they are done, you can cut into one of the larger pieces to check if the juices run clear or use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature has reached 75°C (165°F).
Once cooked, remove the chicken thighs from the oven and let them rest for a few minutes. Serve hot, garnished with additional fresh parsley if desired, alongside your favorite sides like steamed vegetables, rice, or a fresh salad.
Congratulations, you've made Teriyaki Crumbed Chicken! Whether you serve it with a side of steamed vegetables, mashed potatoes, or over a bed of rice, this dish is sure to become a favorite. Enjoy the harmonious blend of flavors and the satisfying crunch of this delightful meal.
