Let it simmer until it becomes thick and glossy.
Turn off the heat and sit it to the side to cool.
While your homemade teriyaki sauce is cooling, you can trimmed any unsavory bits from your chicken breasts and cut them in half through the middle.
Place the chicken on a foiled lined baking sheet, and season them with salt and pepper on both sides.
Then drizzle half of the sauce over the chicken and brush it all over.

After 15 minutes remove the chicken from the oven, take off the foil, flip the chicken, pour over the other half of the sauce and brush all the pieces. Place back into the oven and bake 15 more minutes.
