Description
This Best Teriyaki Chicken Bowl is a quick and flavorful meal made with juicy glazed chicken, crisp veggies, and fluffy rice. It’s perfect for weeknight dinners or meal prep and customizable to your taste.
Ingredients
1 pound boneless, skinless chicken thighs (or breasts), diced
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
2 cups cooked white or jasmine rice
1 cup broccoli florets
0.5 cup sliced carrots
0.5 red bell pepper, sliced thin
0.25 cup teriyaki sauce (homemade or store-bought)
1 teaspoon sesame seeds (optional)
1 green onion, chopped (optional)
Instructions
1. Whisk together soy sauce, honey, garlic, ginger, and cornstarch slurry in a saucepan. Simmer until thickened and glossy. Set aside.
2. Heat oil in a skillet, add diced chicken, cook until golden and cooked through. Add teriyaki sauce and stir to glaze evenly. Simmer for a few minutes.
3. In another pan, lightly steam or sauté broccoli, carrots, and red bell pepper until just tender but still crisp.
4. Add rice to bowls, top with teriyaki chicken, and arrange vegetables around. Garnish with sesame seeds and green onion if desired.
Notes
Use tamari instead of soy sauce for a gluten-free version.
Store components separately for meal prep freshness.
Double the sauce if you like extra glaze for drizzling.
