WHAT YOU NEED TO MAKE TERIYAKI CHICKEN RICE BOWL
- Chicken Breast: I used chicken breast in this recipe, but chicken thighs can work too!
- Ginger: Freshly ground ginger works really well with meats and vegetables and is a common pantry item, so you probably already have it on hand!
- Soy Sauce: Consider using low sodium soy sauce for a reduced salt content.
- Honey: Adds a sweet flavor to the sauce, and also helps to thicken the sauce.
- Rice & veggies for serving: Use white, brown, or quinoa rice and steamed broccoli as a compliment to the teriyaki chicken.
ADJUST THIS RECIPE TO YOUR DIET
- Soy Sauce: You can use tamari or coconut aminos instead of soy sauce.
- Lemon Juice: You can use white vinegar or rice vinegar instead of lemon juice.
- Honey: You can use maple syrup or sugar instead of honey.
TIPS FOR MAKING TERIYAKI CHICKEN RICE BOWL
