Cooking Instructions

  • Slice chicken breasts into 1-inch strips. In a mixing bowl, toss with garlic powder, black pepper, and 4 tablespoons of cornstarch to coat.
  • Dice the onion, cut broccoli into small florets, and slice the bell pepper.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together chicken broth, mirin, soy sauce, rice vinegar, brown sugar, minced ginger, garlic, sesame oil, and 1.5 tablespoons of cornstarch.
  • Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook chicken in batches for about 4 minutes per side until golden brown. Remove and set aside.
  • Add diced onion to the skillet and sauté for 1 minute. Then add broccoli and bell pepper, cooking for an additional 3 minutes until tender-crisp.
  • Return the cooked chicken to the skillet. Pour in the prepared teriyaki sauce and stir well. Increase the heat to thicken the sauce for 1-2 minutes.
  • Garnish with sliced green onions before serving hot over rice or noodles.
