Crock Pot - or not - Terriyaki Chicken


 This was an easy to prepare Saturday Dinner!

INGREDIENTS:
*  1 LB chicken (sliced, cubed, or however you would like. I even through my chicken in crock pot frozen)
*  1 cup Terriyaki or Soy Sauce (I had a little bit of soy sauce left and then added Terriyaki sauce in to make the 1 cup)
*  1/3 cup brown sugar
*  3 minced garlic cloves (I didn't have fresh garlic so I used the stuff out the jar. We like garlic so I didn't really measure it out)
Onions - wasn't in the original recipe but we had some sliced up already so I just added it

DIRECTIONS: 
* Combine all ingredients into crock pot. Stir a little bit and then add chicken. Cook on high for 2-3 hours or Low for 4-6 hours. 
** I had this dish in the crock pot for an hour and my chicken was not cooking fast enough - chicken was frozen when I put it in crock pot.  I ended up transferring everything into a baking dish and putting in the oven. Cooked on 375 for about an hour.  If you use the oven, you won't need this much liquid.
*  Serve over rice and add a vegetable (steamed broccoli)  

Recipe was a little salty for me - but no one else seemed to mind it. Less liquid I'm sure would reduce the salty taste.
