Ingredients

Instructions

  • Add the chicken, avocado oil, teriyaki sauce (or coconut aminos) and garlic to a zip lock bag and seal. Note: if using coconut aminos instead of teriyaki sauce, or if your teriyaki sauce doesn't have a lot of salt in it, you may consider adding some sea salt too!) Move the contents of the bag around until everything is well-distributed and chicken is saturated with coconut aminos.
  • Refrigerate at least one hour, up to 24 hours (I allow mine to marinate overnight).
  • When you’re ready to cook, preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. 
  • Transfer the chicken (including the marinade) to a large casserole dish, leaving the chicken in a single layer.
  • Bake for 40 minutes then increase the oven temperature to 420 degrees F and bake another 5 to 10 minutes, or until the skin is crispy and the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees F.
  • Serve with your choice of side dishes, and enjoy!
