For an extra layer of flavor, marinate the chicken in a mixture of soy sauce, ginger, and garlic for at least 30 minutes before coating and cooking. Adjust the amount of crushed red pepper flakes to your desired level of spiciness. If you don't have teriyaki sauce on hand, you can substitute it with a mixture of soy sauce, brown sugar, and a touch of ginger. Garnish with extra sesame seeds and chopped green onions for a pop of color and added flavor.
