I have tried Teriyaki chicken from Chinese and Japanese restaurants and have often like it. I was tempted to buy a bottle of Teriyaki Sauce after seeing it at the local grocery store, and I ended up buying it. I marinated some chicken pieces with Teriyaki Sauce and grilled it on my grilling pan. The end result was fantastic. The chicken glazed in teriyaki sauce and each bite tasted yummy. I had also grilled some vegetables along with the chicken and I was amazed how good the veggies tasted after grilling.
