- Japanese Cucumber Salad:
- 3 Japanese cucumbers, very thinly sliced
- 1 tablespoon kosher salt
- 1/4 cup rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 2 teaspoons white sugar
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds
- Teriyaki Sauce:
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons mirin
- 2 tablespoons sake
- 2 tablespoons white sugar
- Chicken:
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 6 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
- Toppings:
- 6 (6 inch) corn tortillas
- 1 (8 ounce) container sour cream
- 3 tablespoons sriracha sauce
- 3 scallions, sliced into thin strips
- 1 tablespoon black sesame seeds (optional)
- Place cucumber slices in a colander in the sink. Sprinkle salt on top and toss to coat. Allow to sit for 20 minutes. Rinse cucumber slices very well with cold water; drain.
- Mix rice vinegar, 1 tablespoon soy sauce, 2 teaspoons sugar, and sesame oil together in a bowl. Add cucumber slices and sesame seeds. Toss gently and transfer to the refrigerator.
- Whisk 3 tablespoons soy sauce, mirin, sake, and 2 tablespoons sugar in a small bowl to make teriyaki sauce.
- Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Prick chicken skin all over with a fork; place skin-side down in the hot oil. Cook until the skin is golden brown, about 12 minutes. Flip and continue cooking until second side is browned, about 7 minutes.
- Reduce heat to medium; pour teriyaki sauce over chicken. Cook until sauce thickens, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat. Cover and let rest for 5 minutes. Slice chicken into strips and place in a bowl; add teriyaki sauce from the skillet and toss to coat.
- Toast corn tortillas in a large, dry skillet over medium-high heat until crisp and slightly blackened around the edges, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Wrap in a dish towel to keep warm.
- Mix sour cream and sriracha sauce together in a small bowl.
- Divide teriyaki chicken among tortillas. Drizzle sour cream-sriracha mixture over chicken. Top with cucumber salad, scallions, and black sesame seeds.
