Equipment

  • Skillet

Ingredients
  

Sauce:

  • 2 tbsp tamari or soy sauce
  • 1 tsp rice wine vinegar
  • 1/2 cup teriyaki glaze
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch
  • 1 tsp freshly chopped cilantro

Bowl:

  • 12 oz boneless skinless chicken breast, diced into bite-sized pieces
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 7 oz cooked jasmine rice about 2 cups, kept warm
  • 8 oz frozen broccoli florets thawed and chopped into smaller pieces
  • 1 medium carrot finely grated
  • 1/4 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
  • 1 tbsp toasted sesame seeds

Instructions
 

  • Let’s get practical. I’ll guide you through the steps to make this amazing dish. It’s simpler than you might think!

Step 1: Prepare the Ingredients

  • Start by gathering all your ingredients. Make sure the chicken is chopped into bite-sized pieces. This ensures even cooking. Mince the cilantro and prepare your veggies.

Step 2: Whisk the Sauce

  • In a small bowl, combine tamari or soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, teriyaki glaze, and cornstarch. Whisk until it’s smooth with no lumps. Set this aside.

Step 3: Sauté the Chicken

  • In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced chicken breast. Cook for about 5-7 minutes or until the chicken is golden brown and completely cooked through. It should look juicy and inviting.

Step 4: Add the Veggies

  • Stir in the thawed broccoli and grated carrot to the skillet with the chicken. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender but still vibrant. A colorful plate is more enticing, don’t you think?

Step 5: Combine with the Sauce

  • Pour your earlier sauce mixture into the chicken and veggie combination. Stir it well, making sure everything is coated evenly. Let this cook for another 2-3 minutes to thicken the sauce.

Step 6: Serve Over Rice

  • Take your warm jasmine rice and spoon the chicken and vegetable mixture on top. Sprinkle with crushed red pepper flakes and toasted sesame seeds for an added crunch and flavor burst.

Notes

Here are some valuable tips to ensure your teriyaki bowl is a hit:
  • Use fresh ingredients whenever possible. This enhances flavor and nutrition.
  • Adjust the level of spice. Add more red pepper flakes or include sliced jalapeños if you prefer heat.
  • Marinate the chicken beforehand. For extra flavor, consider marinating the chicken for a few hours before cooking.
  • Try it vegetarian. Swap chicken for tofu for a delicious plant-based alternative.
  • Experiment with different vegetables. Peppers, snap peas, or bok choy are great additions.
