Miryam's original recipe

Yield 4-6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

2-3 lbs organic chicken breast, chopped
12-16 oz organic fresh broccoli
2 garlic cloves, you can also use ginger
4-5 large organic carrots, sliced
Pepper flakes, optional
2 Tbsp olive oil
2 Tbsp ginger, chopped
1/3 cup reduced sodium soy sauce, gluten free
1/3 cup cold water
3-4 teaspoons arrowroot powder, or cornstarch
1/4 cup honey, or unrefined sugar

Steps:

  • In a small bowl mix the Teriyaki sauce ingredients. If you are just making the sauce for future consumption follow this step otherwise follow the next paragraphs. In a small sauce pan, over medium to low heat, heat the sauce until thicken stirring occasionally. About 5 minutes. Let the sauce cool and store it in a glass airtight container in the refrigerator. In a large skillet, over medium to high heat, add the olive oil. Add the chicken and carrots and cook stirring occasionally until almost tender, about 6-8 minutes. Add the garlic and cook further for another minute. While the chicken is cooking, place the broccoli on a safe microwave dish and microwave for 6-7 minutes. Depending on how strong your microwave is you may need less time. My microwave is not too powerful so I use 7 minutes but 3-4 minutes may be enough in yours. Add the Teriyaki sauce from the bowl to the chicken and carrots and stir for about 1-2 minutes or until it thickens. Turn heat off and add the broccoli and pepper flakes if using. Stir to combine. Serve over brown rice or rice noddles. NOTE: I doubled the Teriyaki sauce for us. Teriyaki sauce adapted from Savory Sweet Life

I made this last night for the first time. There was a lot of food but my boyfriend and I loved it so much that there were absolutely no left-overs. If you're vegetarian just sub chicken for a cup of peanuts or nut of your choice.

1 (20 ounce) can pineapple chunks
1 cup broccoli, cut

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all of your ingredients prepped and measured out. This will help you stay organized and prevent any scrambling in the kitchen.
  • Use a Good Quality Teriyaki Sauce: The teriyaki sauce is the star of this dish, so make sure you use a good quality one. Look for a sauce that is thick and flavorful, with a balance of sweet and savory flavors.

  • Use a Variety of Vegetables: This recipe calls for broccoli, carrots, and bell peppers, but you can use any vegetables that you like. Some other good options include snow peas, snap peas, and zucchini.
