Instructions
Follow these simple steps to create the Healthy Teriyaki Chicken Veggie Bowl:
1. Prepare the Sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, ginger, garlic, and cornstarch mixture. Set aside.
2. Cook the Chicken: In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add olive oil and the chicken pieces. Cook for about 5-7 minutes until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through.
3. Add Veggies: Once the chicken is fully cooked, toss in the sliced bell peppers, broccoli, and carrots. Stir-fry for another 5 minutes until the vegetables are tender but still crisp.
4. Incorporate Sauce: Pour the teriyaki sauce over the chicken and veggies in the skillet. Stir well to combine, ensuring everything is evenly coated. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.
5. Prepare the Base: While the chicken and veggies are cooking, prepare your bowls with cooked brown rice or quinoa.
6. Assemble the Bowls: Divide the rice or quinoa evenly among serving bowls. Top with the teriyaki chicken and veggie mixture.
7. Garnish: If desired, sprinkle sesame seeds and chopped green onions on top for added flavor and presentation.
8. Serve Immediately: Enjoy your Healthy Teriyaki Chicken Veggie Bowl warm, fresh from the skillet.
