Como fazer Rainbow's Shoyu Chicken

Wash and thoroughly pat dry 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken thighs.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the sauce ingredients: 1/2 cup soy sauce, 1/4 cup mirin, 1/4 cup sugar, 2 tablespoons sake (optional), 1 tablespoon cornstarch, 1 teaspoon grated ginger, 1 clove minced garlic.
Add the chicken to the sauce, ensuring each piece is coated.
Transfer the chicken and sauce mixture to a pot or Dutch oven. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 20-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and tender.
Skim off any excess fat or foam from the surface of the sauce.
If desired, for a thicker sauce, mix 1 tablespoon of cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of cold water to form a slurry. Slowly whisk the slurry into the sauce.
Bring the sauce back to a gentle boil, stirring constantly, until thickened (about 1-2 minutes).
Serve hot over rice, with your favorite sides. Enjoy!
Optional additions: Add a sprinkle of sesame seeds before serving for extra texture and flavor
