Ingredients
Chicken Teriyaki Bowl Instructions
-
Rinse 1 cup of jasmine rice under cold water until the water runs clear. In a medium pot, combine the rice with 2 cups of water and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 12–15 minutes, or until water is absorbed. Remove from heat and let sit covered for 5 minutes, then fluff with a fork.
-
While the rice cooks, cut chicken into small bite-sized pieces. Heat a large skillet over medium heat with a light coat of oil or cooking spray. Add the chicken and cook, stirring occasionally, until fully cooked and no longer pink, about 6–8 minutes. Pour in Primal Kitchen Teriyaki Sauce, stir to coat, and let simmer for 1–2 minutes until warmed through. Sprinkle sesame seeds on top of chicken and stir to combine.
-
In a separate pot, bring water to a boil and add frozen broccoli. Cook for 3–5 minutes, until tender and bright green, then drain well.
-
Assemble your bowl by adding a base of jasmine rice, topping with teriyaki chicken, and finishing with broccoli. Drizzle extra sauce on top if desired.
-
Serve & enjoy!
