Ingredients

Scale

Chicken and Sauce

  • 1 ½ lb boneless, skinless chicken thighs
  • 1 cup teriyaki sauce
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil

Bowl Components

  • 2 cups cooked white rice
  • 2 cups broccoli florets, steamed
  • 1 cup shredded carrots
  • 1 ripe avocado, sliced

Spicy Mayo

  • 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon sriracha
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil

Garnish

  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds

Instructions

  1. Heat the Oil: Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over medium-high heat to prepare for cooking the chicken.
  2. Cook the Chicken: Add chicken thighs to the hot skillet and cook for 4 to 5 minutes on each side until fully cooked through and crispy on the outside.
  3. Simmer in Teriyaki Sauce: Pour the teriyaki sauce over the cooked chicken in the skillet and simmer for 2 to 3 minutes until the sauce thickens and becomes glossy, coating the chicken well.
  4. Slice the Chicken: Remove the chicken from the skillet and slice it into strips for easy serving in the bowl.
  5. Make Spicy Mayo: In a small bowl, mix together mayonnaise, sriracha, and sesame oil to create a creamy and spicy mayo drizzle.
  6. Assemble the Bowls: Divide cooked white rice, steamed broccoli, shredded carrots, and avocado slices among four bowls.
  7. Top and Garnish: Place the sliced teriyaki chicken on top of the bowls, drizzle with the spicy mayo, and sprinkle sesame seeds over everything before serving.

Notes

  • You can swap white rice for brown rice or quinoa for a healthier option.
  • If you prefer less spice, reduce the amount of sriracha in the spicy mayo or omit it entirely.
  • For extra crunch, add chopped green onions or sliced radishes as garnish.
  • Make sure the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) to ensure it is fully cooked.
  • This recipe can be prepped in advance by cooking the chicken and prepping ingredients separately; assemble just before serving.
