Ingredients
1 1/2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breast, cut into bite-sized pieces
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/4 cup low sodium soy sauce
2 tablespoons honey
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon cornstarch
1/4 cup water
2 cups cooked brown rice
3 cups fresh broccoli florets
1 tablespoon sesame seeds
2 green onions, thinly sliced
Instructions
In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, grated ginger, and minced garlic to make the teriyaki sauce.
In a separate small bowl, mix cornstarch and water until smooth and set aside.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add chicken pieces to the skillet and cook for 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and lightly browned.
Pour the teriyaki sauce over the chicken in the skillet and bring to a simmer.
Stir in the cornstarch mixture and cook for 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens and coats the chicken evenly.
While the chicken cooks, steam the broccoli florets until tender but still crisp, about 4-5 minutes.
To assemble the bowls, divide the cooked brown rice evenly among four serving bowls.
Top each bowl with steamed broccoli and the teriyaki chicken.
Garnish each bowl with sesame seeds and sliced green onions before serving.
