Posted this once before and someone helped me, but I’d like other opinions I tried posting this in r/chinesefood, but someone told me to try posting it here. I can't figure out what this dish called so that I may cook it. The restaurant it's from was based in rural Eastern Tennessee.
The Chinese restaurant referred to it as
"Japanese Chicken". The dish has a sweet and savory taste. The chicken is seared or grilled until there's black slightly crispy sections on it. There is no breading of any sort. It's mixed with onions and black pepper from what I remember. It ha dark brown sort of sauce to it. The sauce anc chicken both have a fatty flavor and consistency, it's definitely made of chicken thighs.
Never had anything like it at any other restaurant but the one from my hometown. But sadly I've moved away years ago and can't get this anymore. So I want to make it myself. Any ideas would help me a lot! On my previous post someone suggested it’s a Chinese take on chicken teriyaki.

    That for sure is some type of teriyaki chicken with onions

    BUT there is another sauce that shows up in some take away places.

    Question. Is it black peppery as well? Like it’s sweet and savory it is there a notable amount of black paper too? Because black

    Another option is “bourbon chicken” in sure there are copy cat versions of the mall ones. Some options [here](https://www.reddit.com/r/TopSecretRecipes/s/HrGeXiOHOk) you’ll have to try and see if close

    Looks just like the “teriyaki chicken” sold at my local panda express type of fast Chinese food joint.
