Ingredients

For Teriyaki Sauce

⅓ cup Soy sauce
1 cup Water
5 cloves Garlic finely minced
1 tablespoon Ginger minced
4 tablespoon Brown sugar
1 tablespoon Corn starch
1 tablespoon Cold water

For the Bowls

1 batch Jasmine rice
1 Zucchini cut in diagonal half moons
1 Carrot cut in matchsticks
1 Bell pepper cut in matchsticks
1 head Broccoli cut into bite-sized florets
4 Chicken breasts seared, sliced

Instructions

Make the sauce: In a sauce pan, add the sauce ingredients with the exception of the corn starch slurry. Allow the ingredients to come to a simmer.
⅓ cup Soy sauce, 1 cup Water, 5 cloves Garlic, 1 tablespoon Ginger, 4 tablespoon Brown sugar
Add the corn starch slurry: In a small bowl, mix the corn starch with cold water. Add the slurry to the sauce, and allow it to come to a simmer.
1 tablespoon Corn starch, 1 tablespoon Cold water
Sauté the vegetables: In a cast iron skillet over high heat, saute the zucchini, broccoli, peppers and carrots. Season with salt and pepper. Once the vegetables are lightly browned, remove off the heat. You want the vegetables to retain their crunch.
1 Zucchini, 1 Carrot, 1 Bell pepper, 1 head Broccoli
Warm your chicken: I recommend using a rotisserie chicken, or pre-cooked chicken breast for this recipe. It is the most time-friendly. Heat your chicken through, and set aside.
4 Chicken breasts
Assemble the bowls: Assemble the rice bowls with a base of jasmine rice, topped with sliced chicken, vegetables, and a generous ladle of teriyaki sauce.
1 batch Jasmine rice
