Ingredients
  

1 lb (450g) boneless, skinless chicken thighs

1 cup cooked jasmine rice

1 cup broccoli florets

1 carrot, julienned

1 bell pepper (red or yellow), sliced

¼ cup soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free)

2 tbsp honey or maple syrup

1 tbsp rice vinegar

1 tbsp sesame oil

1 clove garlic, minced

1 tsp freshly grated ginger

1 tsp cornstarch (optional, for thickening)

2 green onions, sliced (for garnish)

Sesame seeds (for garnish)

Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

Marinate the Chicken: In a mixing bowl, whisk together soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, sesame oil, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Reserve about 2 tablespoons of the marinade for later. Cut chicken into bite-sized pieces and add it to the remaining marinade. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for more flavor.

    Cook the Chicken: In a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat, add a splash of oil. Once hot, add the marinated chicken, including the marinade. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and coats well in the sauce. If you prefer a thicker sauce, mix cornstarch with a tablespoon of water and stir it in to the skillet, cooking for an additional minute until thickened.

      Prepare the Vegetables: In the same skillet, push the chicken to one side and add the broccoli, carrot, and bell pepper. Stir-fry the vegetables for about 3-5 minutes or until slightly tender but still crisp. Season with salt and pepper.

        Assemble the Bowls: In serving bowls, add a generous scoop of jasmine rice as the base. Top with the teriyaki chicken and sautéed vegetables.

          Garnish and Serve: Drizzle the reserved marinade over the bowls if desired. Sprinkle sliced green onions and sesame seeds on top for added flavor and crunch. Serve warm and enjoy your delightful Teriyaki Chicken Paradise Bowls!
