Sarah's January Meal - Hawaiian Teriyaki Chicken

Hawaiian Teriyaki Chicken
( I found this recipe at freezerdinner.com )

1 cup soy sauce
1 cup water
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup white sugar
1/2 tsp sesame oil
2 tsp minced ginger (i used ground ginger, i couldn't find fresh as winco)
3 green onions, chopped
2 tsp minced garlic
1 1/2 lbs chicken tenders or breasts (i used tenders, there should be 10-12 in each dinner more than 1 1/2lbs)
1/2 keilbasa sausage, sliced (optional, i didn't have any when i made it for the fam, but added for the swap)

Place all ingredients except chicken and sausage into  zip-top bags.  Stir to create marinade.  Add the raw chicken and sausage squeeze all the air out of the bag.  Label and freeze.

To Serve: Defrost frozen meat and marinade in the microwave and then cook together in a hot skillet until chicken is cooked through (5 min on each side.)  Serve with rice.  To turn marinade into a sauce, bring to boil on the stove  and add 3 T cornstarch mixed with 1/2 cup cold water. (Mix the cornstarch with water before pouring into the sauce or it will be lumpy.)  Stir until sauce thickens, and then pour on rice. You can garnish with sesame seeds.

OR:  Place all ingredients in a slow cooker and cook on low for 3 hours.  Serve with rice.
