Teriyaki Chicken

chicken (enough for your family 5 or 6 pieces)
1/4 c. teriyaki sauce
3 to 4 large pieces ginger (remove skin & remove from sauce when served)
1/4 c. soy sauce
2 cloves fresh garlic, minced
1 1/3 c. water
1/4 c. sugar
Thickener:
3 Tbsp cornstarch
2 Tbsp water

Mix all ingredients together (except thickener). Place raw chicken in sauce and simmer uncovered until tender; about 30 minutes, longer if chicken is frozen. If you want small pieces of meat, cook in larger pieces and then cut after cooked. Small pieces take on too much of the taste. Remove chicken pieces & ginger. Stir in cornstarch/water mixture - serve over rice and steamed veggies.
