Easy Baked Teriyaki Chicken

Step 1

In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, sugar, corn starch, water, garlic, pepper, and ginger. Stir and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for about 10 minutes, stirring constantly.

Step 2

Once the sauce has thickened, remove it from the heat and allow it to cool for about 5 minutes.

Step 3

Meanwhile, preheat your oven to 375 degrees and grease a baking dish large enough to fit the chicken breasts.

Step 4

Place your chicken into your prepared dish and pour about half of the sauce evenly over top.

Step 5

Bake for 15 minutes, and then pour the rest of the sauce over top. Continue baking for another 10-20 minutes, or until your chicken is thouroughly cooked.

Step 6

Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving with rice, veggies, or salad. You can also garnish with sesame seeds or chopped green onion!
