I love teriyaki chicken, but I am pretty picky when it comes to store bought teriyaki sauce. It usually tastes so salty to me! I decided to make my own at home and it is my favorite teriyaki sauce yet! This dinner so easy to throw together and tastes amazing!

What a fabulous dinner, Elyse – healthy and delicious! It looks absolutely perfect.
Thank you for the nice recipe Elyse.
Do you think this would work in the crock pot? I’m going to try it tonight and see…
We haven’t tried it in the slow cooker yet, but it should work just fine. Just check it so it doesn’t dry out. Very tasty chicken!!
Is there a substitute for the rice vinegar? Would a different type of vinegar work in this recipe? Thanks!
In the email, you said this was your favorite teriyaki sauce, your homemade one. I’m not sure where to start to get the sauce recipe from the entire recipe. I’m looking for one that has a whole lot less salt.
Thanks!

Balsamic vinegar is often used as a substitute for rice vinegar.
Love this idea!
Such a cool post! Love this post!

Hi! I was just wondering if the garlic measurement was a typo? I made this dinner tonight and the garlic flavor was too stong. I used dried minced garlic, should I have adjusted the amount because I used dried? Thank you!! Besides the garlic it seemed great!
Tried this tonight and it was a huge hit (and easy!) – Adding it to our meal rotations, for sure. Thanks for all of the great recipes for this busy family
When you use dried herbs or spices you should use less than the fresh version. It’s very concentrated when it’s dried.
Loved it. Thank you! 🙂
