Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts
- 1 cup fresh broccoli florets
- 1 cup sliced bell peppers (any color)
- 1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon ground ginger
- Cooked rice or quinoa for serving
- Neutral oil for frying
- Optional: sesame seeds or green onions for garnish
Instructions
- Chop the broccoli into bite-sized florets, slice the bell peppers, and cut the chicken into 1-inch pieces. Pat the chicken dry for better browning.
- In a small saucepan over medium heat, whisk together the soy sauce, brown sugar, minced garlic, and ground ginger until the sugar dissolves. Keep it warm on low heat.
- Heat a splash of neutral oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken in a single layer and sear without stirring for 5-7 minutes until golden brown.
- Push the chicken to the side of the skillet. Add in the broccoli and bell peppers and stir-fry for 3-5 minutes until the veggies are tender-crisp.
- Pour the warm teriyaki sauce over the chicken and vegetables, tossing everything for about 1 minute until evenly coated.
- Serve immediately over hot, cooked rice or quinoa. Garnish with sesame seeds or sliced green onions if desired.
Notes
Always pat your chicken dry before cooking to achieve a perfect sear. For a thicker sauce, simmer for a few extra minutes.
