Ingredients
Chicken:
1 ½ pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts (or thighs or tenders), cut into 1-inch pieces
½ teaspoon EACH: kosher salt AND baking soda
¼ teaspoon EACH: white pepper AND garlic powder
12 ounces broccoli florets (steamed or blanched)
Oil, for cooking
Teriyaki Sauce:
¼ cup low sodium soy sauce
4 cloves garlic, minced
3 tablespoons EACH: rice vinegar AND dark brown sugar (or light brown sugar)
2 teaspoons EACH: grated ginger, cornstarch, AND toasted sesame oil
Pinch of red pepper flakes, optional
Instructions
MARINATE: Add the kosher salt, white pepper, garlic powder, baking soda, and 1 tablespoon of water to a medium bowl. Stir in the chicken and allow the chicken to marinate for at least 5 minutes (if you have 30 minutes, that would be even better!)
TERIYAKI SAUCE: In a mason jar with a tight-fitting lid, combine the soy sauce, garlic, vinegar, dark brown sugar, ginger, cornstarch, toasted sesame oil, red pepper flakes (if using), and 2 tablespoons of water. Cap the jar and shake until combined.
CHICKEN TERIYAKI: Heat a generous tablespoon of oil in a large pan over medium high heat. Stir fry the chicken stirring occasionally so that it browns evenly on all sides. Add in the steamed broccoli. Pour in the sauce and allow to cook for a minute or so until it thickens, stirring occasionally so the sauce does not stick to the pan. Top with sliced green onions, or sesame seeds as desired. Serve with freshly made steamed rice and additional sautéed veggies. How many pounds have you lost this month?
