Teriyaki Chicken Drumsticks (Teriyaki) image

This is a family favorite and so simple. I first got the recipe from a friend who was a chef in a Japanese restaurant. When I married my husband he was using the same recipe he got from his Japanese ex-mother-in-law. It is so versatile we have used it for chicken breasts, wings, thighs, salmon, halibut, beef-kabobs - even veggies!

I love this recipe because it's so versatile. I've made it with chicken breasts, thighs, and drumsticks, and it's always delicious. I also like to add different vegetables to the pan, such as broccoli, carrots, and peppers.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I made a big batch of chicken breasts on the weekend and used the leftovers to make this dish. It was a quick and easy meal that my whole family loved.

I'm not a big fan of teriyaki sauce, but I decided to give this recipe a try anyway. I'm so glad I did! The chicken was so tender and juicy, and the sauce was actually really good. I'll definitely be making this again.
