Main Ingredients
  • 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken thighs or breasts cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 1 cup jasmine rice
  • 2 cups water
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons mirin
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1 clove garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon ginger minced
  • 1 small onion sliced
  • 1 carrot julienned
  • 1 bell pepper sliced
  • 1 cup broccoli florets
  • 2 green onions sliced
  • Sesame seeds for garnish
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Method
 

Cooking Rice
  1. Rinse the jasmine rice under cold water until the water runs clear.
  2. Combine the rice and water in a medium saucepan. Bring it to a boil, reduce the heat to low, cover, and let it simmer for 15 minutes or until fluffy.
  3. Once done, remove from heat and keep covered.
Preparing Teriyaki Sauce
  1. In a small bowl, mix together the soy sauce, mirin, honey, and cornstarch until smooth.
Cooking Chicken
  1. Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
  2. Add chicken pieces and season with salt and pepper. Cook for about 6-8 minutes or until browned and cooked through.
  3. Remove the chicken and set aside.
Sautéing Vegetables
  1. In the same skillet, add minced garlic and ginger. Stir for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
  2. Toss in sliced onion, julienned carrot, bell pepper, and broccoli. Stir-fry for 4-5 minutes until tender-crisp.
Combining Everything
  1. Return the cooked chicken to the skillet.
  2. Pour the teriyaki sauce over the chicken and vegetables, stirring well to coat.
  3. Allow it to cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, letting the sauce thicken.
Serving
  1. Serve the teriyaki chicken mixture over the cooked jasmine rice.
  2. Garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds for a beautiful finish.
