This recipe has been a huge success over at Life In The Lofthouse! It has received lots of wonderful comments from readers – let’s take a look at what they’ve said about it:
I wanted to let you know that I made the Teriyaki Chicken Casserole for my family (roommate, her parents and my Dad) for Sunday dinner. All I can say is: WOW!! The teriyaki sauce is so simple to make and tastes out of this world. I will admit that I decided to use fresh veges instead of what you had listed. I figured that since we are at the beginning of the vegetable season I would add asparagus, green beans, carrots, snow peas and broccoli. I just cooked them individually and then added everything together after the chicken was shredded. I’ll admit it was a lot more work but overall, your recipe was amazing!! In fact my family informed me that I needed to put it with my “keep” file and fix it again sometime. Delicious and healthy!
Made this for dinner tonight – it was a hit with my kids who are 13, 12 and 9 and my hubby told me good job – thanks for the inspiration!!

Stir together the corn starch and 2 tablespoons of water in a separate dish until smooth. Once sauce is boiling, add mixture to the saucepan and stir to combine. Cook until it starts to thicken, and remove from heat.
