Teriyaki Chicken

"I found this on another recipe website...it's really easy, fairly inexpensive (I had all the ingredients at home already) and the leftovers are super! I really hope you enjoy! I serve with Shortcut Sticky Rice, Recipe #105013. The cooking time does not include the marinating time of 2-3 hours. Hint: I made the 2nd batch of marinade right before I cooked the chicken."

  1. I didn't marinate it (didn't figure out what I was cooking until supper time). So I cooked the chicken separately and then put the sauce in the pan and brought it to a boil. Added the chicken and let it simmer for about 20 minutes. FABULOUS. I also added a little fresh garlic to the sauce. Bit time winner.
     
  2. Easy to make, very good! I substituted chicken broth for a portion of the soy sauce in order to lower the sodium content; otherwise I followed the recipe as written. The whole family loved it!
     
  3. This was very good. I only used 1/2 cup brown sugar and it was just right for me. I added 1/2 bag of stir fry vegetables and ate it over rice. I did thicken it a little as I wanted it more saucy than watery.
     
  4. This is so so yummy! My extremely picky husband has fallen in love with this recipe and can't wait to make it again! The only thing we did differently was we marinated the chicken for about 6 hours. It turned out delicious and we will definitely add it to our favorites!
     
  5. This recipe was so easy and it turned out delicious. I made extra sauce and sauteed a bag of frozen mixed veggies in it. (the one with the water chestnuts, carrots, and snap peas, etc.) Then served the chicken and veggies over rice......mmmmm it was amazing! My husband loved it. His suggestion is to throw a dash of red pepper flakes in it next time for a kick! Gonna try it! :)

  2. Delicious!! I added a bit more cornstarch to make the sauce thicker and I made half the recipe substituting the sugar for 1/4 cup of splenda brown. The result was excellent! Thanks for submitting this recipe!
