Teriyaki Chicken
- 1 cup teriyaki sauce
- 1 pound chicken uncooked, cubed, about 2 breasts
- 2 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon garlic minced
- ½ tablespoon ginger minced
- 1.5 cups white rice cooked
Add the teriyaki sauce and cubed uncooked chicken to a bag or bowl and mix to coat. The chicken should be about ½" to 1" thick. Store in the fridge until ready to use.
Heat a pan over medium heat with the sesame oil. Add the garlic and ginger and saute until fragrant, about 2 minutes.
Add the chicken to the pan with all the sauce and cook for 5-7 minutes per side. Don't move it until the time is up so that it develops the delicious golden brown exterior.
While the chicken cooks, prepare your rice and toppings. Then plate everything up and enjoy!
Storage: Any leftover rice and chicken can be stored together in the fridge in an airtight container for up to 4 days. Any other toppings should be stored separately. The rice will stay fresh longer when stored with the saucy chicken.
Reheating: When reheating the next day or later, simply heat the chicken and rice in the microwave for 1 minute or until heated through. Top with fresh toppings and enjoy!
meal prepping: To make this in advance, make all the components. Then, store the chicken and rice together and topping separately. Each can be stored in single-serve sizes so they are ready to grab and go for lunches.
