Japanese Sticky Chicken

Japanese Sticky Chicken

Japanese Sticky Chicken is packed with flavor and perfect for anyone wanting an easy to prepare, family friendly meal! This Japanese Sticky Chicken has a sweet and salty taste that begs to be eaten with your hands and tastes finger lickin’ good. I’ve made it 5 times with slight variations, so I’ve had plenty of leftovers that were just as tasty as when the chicken first came out of the oven.
