Description

Make a delicious chicken teriyaki bowl with this easy recipe. It’s perfect for a quick and flavorful meal.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons mirin
  • 1 tablespoon sake (or rice wine vinegar)
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1 teaspoon grated ginger
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • Cooked rice, for serving
  • Steamed broccoli, for serving
  • Sesame seeds, for garnish
  • Green onions, sliced, for garnish

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, whisk together soy sauce, mirin, sake (or rice wine vinegar), sugar, ginger, and garlic.
  2. Add the chicken to the marinade and let it sit for at least 15 minutes, or up to 1 hour in the refrigerator.
  3. Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
  4. Add the marinated chicken to the skillet and cook until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
  5. Serve the chicken over cooked rice with steamed broccoli.
  6. Garnish with sesame seeds and green onions.

Notes

  • For a thicker sauce, mix 1 teaspoon of cornstarch with 1 tablespoon of water and add it to the sauce during the last minute of cooking.
  • Adjust the amount of sugar to your preference.
  • You can substitute chicken breasts for chicken thighs, but thighs are more flavorful and tender.
