Teriyaki Chicken and Vegetables Over Rice

This is one of my “Suppers in a Flash” recipes…. hearty, tasty and quick. A delicious supper in under 30 minutes…. perfect for the week night meal when time is short.

Everything can easily be made all at the same time…. the homemade Teriyaki sauce cooks while you steam the vegetables in the microwave and make the rice… and the chicken cooks in the skillet.

Thanks to the folks at Birdseye… they have great vegetable combinations that you can steam right in the bag.. and I must tell you.. they come out perfect every time. This recipe uses their broccoli, carrots, sugar snap peas and water chestnut mix.

TIPS

Make your teriyaki sauce from scratch.. the recipe is quick and easy and you’ll be sure to know exactly what’s in it… click here for the recipe. If you like your meal very saucy… double the recipe.

I used a package of chicken tenders from the meat department at the grocery store.. you can cut your own using boneless chicken breasts.

White or brown rice works well with this dish.

This recipe will feed 2-3 and easily doubles…

Relax and enjoy making this quick and easy recipe!
