CLUFF'S TERIYAKI CHICKEN

2-3 Pounds chicken pieces, with skin on or off, bone in or boned it doesn’t matter. Use what ever you normally cook for you family.
1 Cup soy sauce
1 Cup orange juice
If desired you can add the following:
1 Tsp finely chopped garlic
1 Tsp fresh grated ginger (if you substitute dry use ½ Tsp)
3 Tbl honey
4-6 Fresh sliced green onions
Mix together soy sauce and orange juice to make Teriyaki sauce. Place chicken in 4 Quart sauce pan, add sauce, and bring to boil then cover and turn down to simmer. Simmer for about 30 to 40 minutes, turning chicken pieces several times so each piece gets covered with the sauce. The sauce will be runny, like water. If you would like it can be thickened with corn starch when the chicken is cooked. Serve over hot rice.
Variation: If you would like add all or part of the additional ingredients to the teriyaki sauce you can. Sometimes I make it this way and sometimes I’ve added chunk pineapple just before I serve it.
Another variation is to cook some broccoli or other green veggies and make teriyaki bowls with the chicken, sauce & rice.
