I followed the recipe exactly and the chicken turned out dry. I'm not sure what went wrong, but I will try again with a different recipe.

This recipe was a bit too sweet for my taste, but I was able to adjust the amount of sugar in the teriyaki sauce to my liking. The chicken was cooked perfectly and the pitas were a great addition.

I love this recipe! It's so easy to make and the chicken is always so flavorful. I've also tried it with other meats, such as pork and beef, and it's always turned out great.

I made this recipe last night and it was a hit with my family! The chicken was juicy and tender, and the teriyaki sauce was the perfect balance of sweet and savory. I will definitely be adding this recipe to my regular rotation.
