Teriyaki Chicken

Teriyaki Chicken is a quick meal that you throw in the Crock Pot and in 8 hours (on LOW), you're ready to serve.


*We go with drumsticks here at the Chong household.
a) they cook well on the bone.
b) the kids can pick them up -if the meat is not sliding off.

*Pick up a bottle of Kikkoman Teriyaki Sauce. (on the shelves at The TEET located in the Asian aisle for about $3)


*Coat the bottom of the crock pot with some Teriyaki Sauce (not too much) prior to putting the drumsticks in.
REASON: It doesn't stick to the liner* or pot. A little olive oil doesn't hurt either.

*Place all the drumsticks in the crock pot.

*POUR the whole bottle of Teriyaki Sauce onto the drumsticks.

*Mix around.

*Throw some seasoning on top. Get creative. (I like to draw 2 lines of Soy on top for that 'burst')

*Cover.

*Place the crock pot in the refrigerator until the next day.

*Side Note: Crock Pot liners rock. No mess. When you're done, all you have to do is throw out the liner and wipe down the pot. No more dealing with washing the crock pot and figuring out what to do with the electric cord while washing.

THE NEXT DAY....

Before you start 'cooking', mix the drumpsticks with a spoon. Get the sauce to mingle with the other drumsticks other than the ones the sauce was hanging out with overnight.

Since we are gone all day, we set our crock pot on LOW for 8 hours and then when the 8 hours are up, our crock pot kicks onto WARM.

WARNING: Your house will smell like Teriyaki Chicken.

Best served with rice. Or on top of a salad. We also go with stuffing and corn.
Plenty of extra sauce to re douse the 'sticks when done.

Stephanie LOVES it as do the girls.

EASY. Prep time and cooking.
