Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 oz Plant-based chicken strips
- 0.25 cup Soy sauce (gluten-free, if needed)
- 2 tbsp Brown sugar
- 1 tbsp Maple syrup
- 1 tbsp Rice vinegar
- 1 tsp Sesame oil
- 1 tbsp Cornstarch
- 2 tbsp Water
- 2 cups Cooked white or brown rice
- 1 cup Broccoli florets
- 1 medium Carrot, thinly sliced
- 1 medium Bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 0.5 cup Edamame (shelled and cooked)
- 1 tsp Sesame seeds
- 1 stalk Green onion, sliced
- 1 tbsp Neutral cooking oil (e.g., avocado or vegetable oil)
Instructions
Prepare the teriyaki sauce by combining soy sauce, brown sugar, maple syrup, rice vinegar, and sesame oil in a small bowl.
In a separate bowl, mix cornstarch with water to create a slurry. Set both aside.
Heat 1 tbsp of cooking oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the plant-based chicken strips and cook for 5-7 minutes, flipping occasionally until golden brown. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the broccoli, carrot, and bell pepper. Stir-fry for 5-6 minutes until tender-crisp.
Return the plant-based chicken strips to the skillet. Pour the prepared teriyaki sauce over the mixture and stir to coat.
Add the cornstarch slurry to the skillet and stir until the sauce thickens, about 1-2 minutes. Remove from heat.
Assemble the bowls by dividing the cooked rice between two serving bowls. Top with the teriyaki 'chicken' and vegetable mixture.
Garnish with edamame, sesame seeds, and sliced green onion. Serve warm and enjoy!
