If you need a dish to impress your man this Valentine's Day, this is the dish. This Baked Teriyaki Chicken is restaurant quality. I'm salavating just thinking about it. It tasted just as good or better the next day! I personally loved it for it's taste AND ability to make out of a cheaper cut of meat. I usually only cook with boneless, skinless chicken breasts, but I tried this recipe with breast and thighs and they both turned out great. For boneless, skinless chicken breasts, I kept at 400°F but reduced the time to 40 minutes.
