Here’s a simple, tasty way to make Teriyaki Chicken & Broccoli at home:
🥢 Ingredients:
- 2 chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 2 cups broccoli florets
- 2 tbsp oil (vegetable or olive)
For the teriyaki sauce:
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 2 tbsp honey or brown sugar
- 1 tbsp rice vinegar
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tsp grated ginger
- 1 tbsp cornstarch + 2 tbsp water (slurry)
🍳 Instructions:
- Cook the chicken: Heat oil in a pan, add chicken, and cook until golden and cooked through. Remove and set aside.
- Cook the broccoli: In the same pan, stir-fry broccoli for 3–4 minutes until tender-crisp. Add a splash of water to steam if needed.
- Make the sauce: Add soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, garlic, and ginger to the pan. Bring to a simmer. Stir in the cornstarch slurry and cook until thickened.
- Combine: Return chicken to the pan and toss everything together until well coated.
- Serve: Over rice or noodles. Optional: sprinkle sesame seeds or green onions on top.
🔥 Tip: Marinate the chicken for 20–30 minutes before cooking to make it extra flavorful.
