Teriyaki Chicken Rice Bowl
Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 1 cup of white rice
- 1 1/2 pounds of boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 1/2 cup of soy sauce
- 1/4 cup of brown sugar
- 2 cloves of garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon of grated ginger
- 1 tablespoon of cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons of water
- 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil
- 1 cup of broccoli florets
- 1 cup of sliced carrots
- 1/2 cup of sliced green onions
- 1 tablespoon of sesame seeds (optional)
Instructions
- Cook 1 cup of white rice according to package instructions and set aside.
- In a small bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup of soy sauce, 1/4 cup of brown sugar, minced garlic, and grated ginger to make the teriyaki sauce.
- In another small bowl, mix 1 tablespoon of cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of water to make a slurry.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken pieces and cook until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
- Pour the teriyaki sauce over the cooked chicken and stir to coat. Add the cornstarch slurry and continue to cook, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens, about 2-3 minutes.
- In a separate pan, sauté the broccoli and carrots until tender-crisp, about 3-4 minutes.
- To assemble the rice bowls, divide the cooked rice among 4 bowls. Top with the teriyaki chicken, sautéed vegetables, and sliced green onions. Sprinkle with sesame seeds if desired.
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
The Teriyaki Chicken Rice Bowl has a rich history rooted in Japanese cuisine. Originating in the Kanto region of Japan, this dish features tender, grilled chicken marinated in a sweet and savory teriyaki sauce, served over a bed of steaming white rice. Renowned chefs like Nobuyuki Matsuhisa have elevated this classic dish, infusing it with their own unique culinary flair. Today, the best versions of this dish can be found in authentic Japanese restaurants, where the key lies in the perfect balance of the teriyaki sauce's sweetness and umami flavors. For a twist, consider trying a Hawaiian-style teriyaki chicken bowl, which incorporates pineapple for a delightful tropical touch.
