Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts cut into 1-inch chunks
  • 2 cups brown rice (uncooked) recommend Uncle Ben's
  • 3.5 cups water
  • 1/4 cup teriyaki sauce
  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce low-sodium
  • 1/2 cup carrots shredded
  • 1/3 cup green onions chopped
  • 1/2 cup snow peas
  • 1 cup broccoli florets

Instructions

  • Heat 1 tablespoon sesame oil in a large, high-sided skillet over medium-high heat until hot.
  • Add the 1 pound of chicken pieces and cook, stirring occasionally, until no pink remains in the center, about 5–7 minutes.
  • Add the uncooked 2 cups brown rice, 3 1/2 cups water, 1/4 cup teriyaki sauce, 3 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce, 1/2 cup shredded carrots, 1/3 cup chopped green onions, and 1/2 cup snow peas to the skillet; stir to combine.
  • Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 20 minutes or until the rice is tender and most liquid is absorbed.
  • Stir in 1 cup broccoli florets, re-cover, and simmer for about 5 more minutes until the broccoli is tender and no liquid remains.
  • If desired, drizzle additional teriyaki sauce over the bowls, then spoon into serving bowls and enjoy.

Equipment

  • Large Skillet with Lid
  • Measuring Cups and Spoons
  • Knife and cutting board
  • Spatula or spoon

Notes

  • Use low-sodium soy sauce to control saltiness.
  • Cut chicken into uniform pieces for even cooking.
  • Use a tight-fitting lid to retain steam while simmering.
