Description
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
- 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.
- Steam the broccoli florets until bright green and tender-crisp, about 3-4 minutes. Set aside.
- 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.
- Remove chicken from skillet and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing into bite-sized pieces.
- 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.
- 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.
- Enjoy your homemade Teriyaki Chicken Bowl!
