Thanks, Blair, I'll do that. I stop at AJ's at last
once a week.
It's in the deli case, near the $27/lb "prime" rib,
which is one of the greatest pure ripoffs in the
supermarket industry.

I should've just thought to check Groups.Google.Com...
Man. I've been making this almost unchanged for a very
long time:

I "invented" it about 5 years before that, when I was in
school. I had started to dislike bottled, sugary teriyaki
sauce, so I just used the parts I liked. I no longer add
oil, as chicken never really needed it.
Here's some that describe the technique better:

Ignore the part about not liking real teriyaki; what I don't
like is teriyaki with sugary stuff in it (pineapple, honey,
etc.); I now make a teriyaki salmon sweetened only with
mirin and ginger, and it really is phenomenal. But I don't
think the flavor would work as well with chicken, so Chicken
Things is still my favorite way to do that.
Getting the right minced garlic is crucial for texture; some
brands are more flaky than chunky. Getting it to stick to
the skin and crisp up is also important.
