We have made this chicken many, many times, there are a couple of things I would recommend. First only use skinless, boneless thighs, we tried it both ways and found S/B way the best each time. Secondly if you are having your sauce too thick following the first 6 minutes it is because the amount of cornstarch will always thicken a sauce. I cut it in half every time regardless of how many pieces cooked. This way no need to ever have to add extra sherry. Rick m.
