So if I use the right sauce, it won't taste super salty? I want a simple recipe, but I also don't want it to be super salty.

Hi Karlie
Most Teriyaki sauce is a bit salty tasting. The brand I used in this recipe wasn't extremely salty tasting. But if you want to cut the amount of teriyaki sauce in half, then add enough water to just cover the chicken while it's cooking. You could do that. Then when you are eating if it needs more teriyaki flavor just add some to your serving.

I feel like if I ate the ocean for dinner, this is what it would taste like. Way to salty. The specific sauce used must be the key factor here, so the description in the ingredient list shouldn't be followed.
Disappointing.

So sorry you didn't enjoy the recipe. I did mention the brand of Teriyaki sauce I used in the post. Why did you use a different brand than the one mentioned?

I fixed this today exactly as the recipe directed. It looked just like the picture when done. I'm sorry to say, I had to throw the entire dinner away. It was sooo salty we could not eat it. Sorry. I will definitely try something from you again but I will pay closer attention to the ingredient list.

I am sorry to hear that. Did you use the same brand of teriyaki sauce? Did you add extra salt? I'm not sure if you noticed but there is no salt in the recipe. Maybe you could try it again with a low sodium teriyaki sauce.

Love the easy recipe! Do I have to defrost the chicken prior to cooking? Thanks!

You could use frozen chicken breast but it will add more liquid to the crock pot and the sauce will not be as thick.
