Make a delicious and easy Teriyaki Chicken Rice Bowl in minutes! This simple recipe features tender chicken coated in teriyaki sauce, served with steamed veggies over jasmine rice.
Ingredients
(Based on 1x column, assumes 2-3 servings)
- 1 lb chicken breast, boneless, skinless, diced
- 2 cups cooked jasmine rice (or other grain)
- 1 cup broccoli florets
- 1 cup julienned carrots
- 1/4 cup teriyaki sauce (store-bought or homemade)
- 1 tbsp sesame oil
- Sesame seeds (for garnish)
- Sliced green onions (for garnish)
Instructions
1. Prepare Rice and Vegetables:
- Cook jasmine rice according to package directions if you don’t have pre-cooked rice available. Keep warm.
- Steam the broccoli florets and julienned carrots together until they reach your desired level of tenderness (tender-crisp is usually best, typically 5-7 minutes). Drain well and set aside.
2. Cook the Chicken:
- Heat the sesame oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
- Once the oil is hot, add the diced chicken breast to the skillet.
- Cook, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is browned on all sides and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
3. Add Teriyaki Sauce:
- Pour the teriyaki sauce over the cooked chicken in the skillet.
- Bring the sauce to a simmer and let it cook with the chicken for 2-3 minutes, stirring to coat the chicken evenly as the sauce glazes slightly.
4. Assemble the Bowls:
- Divide the cooked jasmine rice evenly among your serving bowls.
- Top the rice with the steamed broccoli and carrots.
- Spoon the teriyaki chicken and sauce over the vegetables and rice.
5. Garnish and Serve:
- Garnish the bowls generously with sesame seeds and sliced green onions.
- Serve immediately while hot.
