Traveless Teriyaki Chicken!

You don't have to travel anywhere but your own kitchen to get this tasty chicken dish! It's so easy and the ingredients are probably in your pantry right now. Go on, check. You know you want to...

You will need:

1 cup Lite soy sauce
1/2 cup Sugar
1/2 cup White wine
zest of 1 orange
1 tsp Grated fresh ginger
1 tsp Minced garlic
4 Chicken breasts

Materials you will need:

8x8 baking dish
Spatula
Sauce pan


Line a small bowl or canister with a gallon sized plastic ziploc bag and add the first 6 ingredients. Carefully zip the top of the bag and mix the marinade mixture well until all the ingredients are well incorporated. Next, add the thawed chicken breasts. Again, I use the boneless, skinless chicken breasts and they work great. Finally refrigerate and let it marinate until you're ready for dinner.

Once dinner rolls around you have 2 choices, depending on your personal preference, you can either preheat the oven to 350 degrees and bake the chicken in a nonstick 8x8 baking dish for 45 minutes or until it reaches the internal temperture of 165 degrees. Or you can cook the chicken for 10 minutes per side in a pan with vegetable oil over high heat on your stove top until it reaches the aformentioned internal temperture. Take the chicken out and SAVE THE MARINADE and put it in a sauce pan and boil for 5 minutes.

When you're ready to serve dinner, spoon on the boiled marinade over the chicken. You can serve it over rice or just by itself. We chose to serve it over rice with broccoli and cheese and it was fantastic!
