Ingredients

Scale

1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 3–4 pieces)
2 cloves fresh garlic, minced
1-inch piece fresh ginger, grated
1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
2 tbsp brown sugar
1 tbsp rice vinegar
2 cups cooked jasmine rice
2 green onions, sliced (for garnish)
1 cup steamed broccoli or bell peppers

Instructions

Cut the chicken into bite-sized pieces. In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic, ginger, and rice vinegar to create the teriyaki sauce; set aside.
Heat a tablespoon of oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken pieces in a single layer and sear until golden brown for about 5 minutes.
Pour the teriyaki sauce over the chicken and cook until slightly thickened (about another 5 minutes).
Meanwhile, prepare jasmine rice according to package instructions; fluff with a fork once done.
Assemble your bowls: start with rice, top with teriyaki chicken and any remaining sauce, then garnish with sliced green onions and steamed veggies.
