Equipment

  • Pan
  • Steamer

Ingredients

For the Chicken

  • 1 pound chicken breast use boneless, skinless for tender results
  • 1 cup teriyaki sauce the star of this dish, offering that signature sweet and savory flavor

For the Rice

  • 2 cups cooked rice any variety works, but jasmine rice adds a nice fragrance

For the Veggies

  • 1 cup broccoli florets steam until bright green for maximum nutrition
  • 2 green onions sliced thin for a fresh crunch and garnish

For the Finishing Touches

  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil adds a lovely depth of flavor to your chicken
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds sprinkle on top for a delightful crunch and visual appeal

Instructions

How to Make Teriyaki Chicken Rice Bowls

  • In a pan over medium heat, add the sesame oil. Allow it to warm for a minute, filling the air with a lovely aroma.
  • Add the diced chicken breast to the pan and sauté until it turns golden brown, about 5-7 minutes. Make sure each piece is cooked through for the best flavor.
  • Pour your teriyaki sauce over the chicken. Stir well to coat all pieces, then let it simmer for about 10 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly and infuse the chicken with flavor.
  • While the chicken is cooking, steam your broccoli until it’s bright green and tender, roughly 3-5 minutes. This keeps your veggies fresh and flavorful.
  • Serve the juicy chicken and sizzling sauce over a bed of warm rice. Top it off with the steamed broccoli, sliced green onions, and a sprinkle of sesame seeds for an elegant touch.

Notes

For extra flavor, drizzle a bit more teriyaki sauce over the finished bowls. Store chicken and rice separately if possible to avoid mushiness.
