Teriyaki Chicken Bowl: Discover a Flavorful Recipe!

A delicious and wholesome Teriyaki Chicken Bowl recipe that combines marinated chicken with fresh vegetables and rice, topped with a flavorful teriyaki sauce.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken thighs or breasts
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 1/4 cup mirin (sweet rice wine)
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 2 tablespoons water
  • 2 cups cooked jasmine rice or brown rice
  • 1 cup broccoli florets
  • 1 cup sliced bell peppers (any color)
  • 1/2 cup shredded carrots
  • 2 green onions, sliced
  • Sesame seeds for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Marinate the chicken by whisking together soy sauce, mirin, brown sugar, sesame oil, garlic, and ginger in a bowl. Add chicken and coat well. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  2. Steam the broccoli florets until bright green and tender-crisp, about 3-4 minutes. Set aside.
  3. Heat a splash of oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Remove chicken from marinade and add to the skillet. Cook for 5-7 minutes on each side until cooked through and golden.
  4. Remove chicken from skillet and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing into bite-sized pieces.
  5. In the same skillet, pour in the reserved marinade. Mix cornstarch and water in a small bowl until smooth, then add to the skillet. Simmer and stir until sauce thickens, about 2-3 minutes.
  6. Assemble the bowls by starting with a scoop of rice, layering on sliced chicken, steamed broccoli, bell peppers, and shredded carrots. Drizzle with teriyaki sauce and garnish with green onions and sesame seeds.
  7. Enjoy your homemade Teriyaki Chicken Bowl!
