When you have a craving for some Japanese-style teriyaki chicken, it may seem easier to pick up the takeout menu and call for delivery. But looks can be deceiving! Will the teriyaki chicken arrive cold, or dry, or in tragically small portions? The easier option is actually to whip up a batch of Easy Baked Teriyaki Chicken yourself. Roasted to maximum juiciness and positively slathered in that irresistible tangy, sticky, sweet, and savory sauce. Leave takeout menus in the rearview mirror with Easy Baked Teriyaki Chicken.
