GINGER TERIYAKI CHICKEN
A recipe from the back of a label from a can of LaChoy bean sprouts. The original recipe called for either chicken breast or thighs. We prefer chicken thighs and I often make it with whatever vegetables that we have in the fridge. It also called for serving this over crispy rice noodles, but since I am gluten free this was left out.

Add chicken and Teriyaki sauce to skillet; continue cooking, stirring frequently for about 1 minute or until chicken is hot. Remove chicken from skillet and place over cooked vegetables. Reduce heat under skillet to simmer. Combine water with corn starch and mix until corn starch is dissolved. Add to skillet and stir until thickened. Pour over chicken and vegetables, tossing well to coat. Serve over hot cooked rice.
Tips:
- Use fresh ginger and garlic: Fresh ginger and garlic add a vibrant flavor to the teriyaki sauce. If you don't have fresh ginger or garlic, you can use ground ginger and garlic powder, but the flavor will be less intense.
- Don't overcook the chicken: Chicken breasts cook quickly, so it's important to not overcook them. Overcooked chicken will be dry and tough. Cook the chicken until it is cooked through but still juicy.
- Use a good quality teriyaki sauce: There are many different brands of teriyaki sauce available, so it's important to choose one that you like the taste of. You can also make your own teriyaki sauce at home.
- Serve with rice or noodles: Teriyaki chicken is traditionally served with rice or noodles. You can also serve it with vegetables, such as broccoli, carrots, or bell peppers.
Conclusion:
Ginger teriyaki chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The chicken is tender and juicy, and the teriyaki sauce is flavorful and tangy. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
