Teriyaki chicken has been a favorite of my husbands for a long time. I decided a few years into our marriage I would need to start making it at home instead of ordering out. I came up with a simple teriyaki sauce when I made my Slow Cooker Teriyaki Chicken and I used the same sauce to make this Baked Teriyaki Chicken Breast.

How to make Baked Teriyaki Chicken Breast:

Step one: Preheat your oven and then prepare a baking dish with non-stick cooking spray.

Step two: Place your chicken in your prepared dish. Next prepare the sauce, In a small mixing bowl whisk together your garlic, honey, soy sauce, rice vinegar, water, pepper, onion powder, and ground ginger. Pour this sauce over your chicken and place it in the oven to bake.

Step three: Once the chicken is fully cooked remove the chicken from the baking dish and allow to rest for several minutes. Meanwhile, place the broth in the baking dish into a pan. Whisk in cornstarch and bring to a boil. Allow boiling while whisking. This will help thicken your sauce. Once it is thick then pour it back over your chicken and serve.

Optional step four: I served mine with sesame seeds and green onion as garnish.
