Ingredients

Scale

Teriyaki Sauce:

  • 4 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 teaspoons fresh ginger, minced
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 1/2 cup tamari sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar
  • 2 teaspoons corn starch

Teriyaki Chicken Bowl:

  • 2 tablespoons avocado oil
  • 1.5 lbs. boneless skinless chicken breast, cut into small cubes
  • 2 cups broccoli florets
  • 1 red pepper, julienned
  • 1/4 cup green onions
  • sesame seeds for garnish
  • Jasmine Rice

Instructions

  1. Make Teriyaki Sauce: To a medium bowl add garlic, ginger, honey, tamari sauce, sesame oil, rice wine vinegar and corn starch. Using a whisk, mix until the cornstarch is dissolved. Set aside.
  2. Saute Vegetables: Heat a large skillet to medium high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of avocado oil to the pan along with red pepper and broccoli. Saute for 2-3 minutes until peppers are slightly tender and broccoli is a vibrant green. Remove immediately and set on a plate to rest.

Then add teriyaki sauce into the pan with the chicken, stir to coat and let sauce simmer for 2-3 minutes, stirring throughout.
