Teriyaki Lemon Chicken (Quick and Easy) image

Teriyaki and lemon based chicken. This recipe my Mom used to make is to die for. Watch out - it's highly addictive!! You are guaranteed to overeat! :-) We always double the sauce amounts to make extra sauce (details below), and then thicken it with a little cornstarch. Wonderful served with sugar pea pods. Add pineapple for dessert!

The sauce is amazing! I've made this recipe several times and I always double the sauce so I have extra to serve on the side.

I thought this recipe was just okay. The chicken was a bit bland and the sauce was a bit too thick.

This recipe was a bit too sweet for my taste. I would recommend using less sugar or honey.
