10 Minute Chicken Teriyaki

This is a quick and easy dinner that you can make in just 10 minutes. I like easy and fast meals so that dinner can be less stress to me on busy weeks and busy nights. Got home late? This meal will help you get in plenty of veggies in no time flat.

Ingredients:

  • 2 precooked chicken thighs

  • 1 – 6oz can of water chestnuts

  • 2 cups chopped carrots

  • 2 cups chopped broccoli

  • 2 tbsp teriyaki sauce

  • 1 tbsp coconut aminos

  • 1/4 cup veggies stock

  • 2 servings instant white rice

Instructions:

  1. In a large sauce pan, add carrots, water chestnuts, broccoli, and veggie stock. Cover with a large lid.

  2. Steam veggies for 7-8 minutes until hot but not mushy. Add teriyaki sauce and coconut amino.

  3. Sautee veggies and sauce uncovered for 2-5 minutes until sauce thicken.

  4. Prepare 2 servings of rice for base, place in bowl, and top each serving with half of the veggies. Warm precooked chicken thighs and place on top if desired.

This recipe is a go to for me when I’m busy and need something simple and easy to whip up. It’s also delicious and filling so it’s a staple on busy weeks.

As far as the protein of choice, I like to batch cook chicken thighs early in the week for grab and go on meals where my husband wants them. I also buy precooked chicken thighs from Costco on weeks I’m strapped for meal prep time. Whatever works for you is best, these are just a few options for easier prep.
