Slice the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces.
In a medium bowl, whisk together coconut aminos, pineapple juice, rice vinegar, garlic, ginger, salt, and pepper.
Add the sliced chicken to the bowl and marinate for at least 15 minutes.
In a small bowl, mix the arrowroot powder with water to create a slurry. Set aside.
Heat 1 tablespoon of sesame oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add chicken (reserve marinade) to the skillet and cook for 5-7 minutes or until fully cooked. Remove from skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the reserved marinade and bring it to a simmer.
Stir the arrowroot slurry into the simmering marinade to thicken into a sauce, about 2 minutes.
Return the chicken to the skillet and toss it in the sauce. Let it simmer for 2 more minutes. Then remove from heat and set aside.
In another large pan, heat the remaining tablespoon of sesame oil over medium heat.
Add broccoli florets, bell pepper, and carrot, and stir-fry for about 5 minutes until tender-crisp.
While vegetables are cooking, prepare cauliflower rice according to package directions or steam fresh cauliflower rice.
To assemble the bowls, place a portion of cauliflower rice at the bottom. Top with the chicken teriyaki, sautéed vegetables, and garnish with sliced green onions.
Serve hot and enjoy your Whole30 Chicken Teriyaki Bowl.
