INGREDIENTS
  

  • 1 chicken breast, boneless skinless
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 teaspoon garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon ginger, grated
  • 1 ½ cup uncooked rice, basmati or jasmine
  • 2 ½ water or chicken broth
  • 2 cups frozen Asian stir-fry vegetable mix
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • ½ cup soy sauce, I like low sodium
  • 2 tablespoons honey or brown sugar
  • ¼ cup scallions, just the white part
  • green onions, sliced for garnish
  • sesame seeds, for garnish (optional)
  • fried egg, for serving (optional)

INSTRUCTIONS
 

  • Cook the chicken: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add garlic, and ginger, sautéing for 1-2 minutes until aromatic. Add the chicken, scallions and cook until it’s lightly browned; it will finish cooking with the rice later.

  • Toast the rice: Stir in the uncooked rice and toast it lightly for about a minute. Add water or broth, bring it to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover the skillet with a lid and let it simmer for 10 minutes, or until the rice is nearly cooked.

  • Prepare the sauce: While the rice cooks, whisk together soy sauce, honey (or your preferred sweetener), and sesame oil in a bowl. Set aside.

  • Add the vegetables: Stir in the frozen stir-fry vegetable mix. Cover the skillet and simmer for another 5 minutes, until the vegetables are tender and the chicken is cooked through.

  • Finish and serve: Pour the teriyaki sauce over the rice mixture and stir until everything is evenly coated. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to let the flavors meld. Garnish with chopped scallions and serve hot.
