Description

A delightful Teriyaki Chicken Rice Bowl that combines tender chicken with a sweet and savory sauce, served over rice and garnished with fresh vegetables.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts, cubed
  • 1 Tbsp. olive oil
  • 1/2 cup low sodium soy sauce
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 3 Tbsp. packed light brown sugar
  • 2 Tbsp. rice vinegar
  • 1/2 tsp. sesame oil (optional)
  • 1 tsp. ground ginger
  • 2 tsp. minced garlic
  • 2 Tbsp. honey
  • 3 tsp. cornstarch
  • Sesame seeds and chopped green onions for garnish
  • Rice for serving
  • Steamed veggies for serving

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  2. Add the cubed chicken to the skillet, browning it until cooked through and no longer pink.
  3. While the chicken cooks, prepare your teriyaki sauce. In a medium bowl, whisk together soy sauce, water, honey, brown sugar, rice vinegar, sesame oil, ground ginger, minced garlic, and cornstarch until well combined.
  4. Once the chicken is cooked through, pour the teriyaki sauce over it and stir continuously, letting it simmer until the sauce thickens beautifully.
  5. Serve your Teriyaki Chicken over a bed of white or brown rice, paired with steamed vegetables. Garnish with sesame seeds and chopped green onions for added flavor and texture.

Notes

For the best flavor, use freshly minced garlic and ground ginger. Customize your vegetables based on what you have on hand.
