Indiebound: https://www.indiebound.org/book/97816... Hey Foodies, Today I am going to show you how to make an easy teriyaki chicken recipe in just 30 minutes. This is more than just a quick delicious meal because you can make a large batch and use it for meal planning, or serve it at a special occasion, holiday or family get-together. It suits many purposes because it's made with the simplest and most popular ingredients: chicken, rice and vegetables. Hence, you just can't go wrong with it! How to make teriyaki chicken with rice and vegetables - Best Tips & Tricks 1. Make sugar and gluten-free teriyaki sauce After seeing what teriyaki is and what it's made of, you're probably wondering why I said that my teriyaki chicken recipe is sugar and gluten-free. Don't worry, it wasn't a joke. You know that I always like to tweak recipes, right? So I've made a few changes to this one as well. I replaced sugar with honey (who needs sugar when you've got the nectar of gods, right?) and I used coconut aminos and gluten-free flour instead of soy sauce. This is a healthier version because it doesn't pose any of the GMO health dangers associated with GM soy. Also, many store-bought soy sauces are highly processed and contain additives, preservatives and stabilizers, so it's best to read the label carefully if buying it. Here are a few more reasons why coconut aminos are better than soy sauce if you want to know more. 2. Adapt this easy teriyaki chicken recipe to your taste First of all, you can change the veggies with your favorites. And here are some that would fit perfectly: bell pepper, corn, sugar snap peas, eggplant, mushrooms and onions. You can mix them however you want but remember to cut all veggies about the same size so they can cook evenly and at the same time. Also, I highly recommend adding minced garlic, ginger and chili. Unfortunately, I didn't, because I wanted to keep this recipe as simple as possible but you should really try it if you have the time. About the rice, I used Jasmine but if you want a healthier version you can make the teriyaki chicken with brown rice. Or, you can remove the rice completely and add more veggies. Totally up to you! You can also change the chicken breast with boneless thighs or chicken tenders. But make sure you cut it into bite-sized pieces to help it cook faster and get well coated in teriyaki sauce. Now that you know how to make teriyaki chicken healthy and tasty, let me show you how to use it for meal planning. 3. How to do meal-planning with teriyaki chicken As I said right from the start, this easy teriyaki chicken recipe is perfect for meal planning. It's actually my favorite for this purpose. I usually make it on a Saturday or Sunday, divide it into single-serving glass containers or bowls, and refrigerate it for up to 5 days. You can also freeze it for up to a month, although I must admit, I haven't yet seen a foodie to plan his meals a month ahead :) . If you're out there, give me a shout and let everybody know how you do it. Now here's a helpful trick. Use borosilicate glass containers or bowls that are oven and microwave safe. This way, whenever you need a quick meal, you just have to take the lid off and heat it for about 5 minutes. Doesn't get easier than that! Now let's recap the key points before moving on to my easy teriyaki chicken recipe: 1. Make the sauce sugar and gluten free by using honey, coconut aminos, and gluten-free flour. 2. If you want, you can swap the veggies with your favorites (bell pepper, corn, sugar snap peas, eggplant, mushrooms and onions etc) and use brown rice instead of Jasmine. 3. For extra flavor, add minced garlic, ginger and chili. 4. You can replace the chicken breast with boneless thighs but make sure you cut it into bite-sized pieces.
