Cut the chicken thighs into bite-sized pieces and set aside.
In a small bowl, mix the soy sauce, mirin, brown sugar, honey, rice vinegar, minced garlic, and minced ginger to create the teriyaki sauce.
In a separate smaller bowl, mix the cornstarch and water to form a slurry. Set aside for later use.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set it aside on a plate.
In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Add the broccoli, carrots, and onion, and stir-fry for 4-5 minutes until the vegetables are tender yet still crisp.
Add the cooked chicken back to the skillet with the vegetables. Pour the teriyaki sauce over the chicken and vegetables, allowing it to heat through for 1-2 minutes.
Add the cornstarch slurry to the skillet, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens and evenly coats the chicken and vegetables. Remove from heat.
To assemble, divide the cooked white rice into four bowls. Top the rice with the teriyaki chicken and vegetable mixture.
Garnish each bowl with sliced green onions and a sprinkle of sesame seeds.
Serve immediately and enjoy!
