Instructions
Begin by preparing the brown rice according to the package instructions. While the rice is cooking, move on to the next steps.
Cut the chicken breasts into bite-sized cubes and set aside.
In a small bowl, mix the soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, minced garlic, and grated ginger to create the teriyaki sauce.
In a separate bowl, mix the cornstarch with water until smooth.
Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken cubes and cook until browned on all sides, about 6-8 minutes.
Pour the teriyaki sauce over the chicken in the skillet, reduce the heat to medium, and let it simmer for 5 minutes.
Add the cornstarch mixture to the skillet, stirring constantly until the sauce thickens, about 2 minutes. Remove the skillet from heat and set aside.
Steam the broccoli florets, sliced red bell pepper, and carrot slices until tender, about 5-7 minutes. Add the shelled edamame in the last 2 minutes of steaming.
To assemble the bowls, begin by placing a scoop of brown rice in each bowl.
Layer the cooked chicken with teriyaki sauce over the rice.
Arrange the steamed vegetables around the chicken.
Garnish with sesame seeds and sliced green onions.
Serve immediately and enjoy your nutritious High Protein Chicken Teriyaki Bowl.
