A little salty, a little sweet, a little sour, and just the tiniest hint of spice from minced ginger: This chicken teriyaki is exactly what you'd want for dinner after a long day at work. Serve it up with a side of steamed rice and broccoli and make your mom proud that you're finally eating balanced, proper meals. We use chicken breasts here for ease, but you can substitute with any other type of protein: dark meat, pork, beef, or tofu. The best part? It takes just about half an hour to make. This homemade meal is so much faster than waiting for takeout to arrive, and you know exactly what ingredients are going into your bowl.
