Simple Teriyaki Chicken
Hello friendssss! Last night’s workout was quite sluggish if you ask me. I actually had a good amount of energy, but my body was just worn out. I think the bouldering session on Monday night did me in!
Even so I was able to eke out this workout (and selfie haha):
Try it if you’d like! It moves pretty quickly! (Always check with a doctor before starting any new fitness routine.)
When I left the gym, I stopped at the store to try to figure out what to make for dinner. I didn’t want something that took a long time, but knew chicken needed to be involved. (I love chicken!)
After some back and forth texts with the boyfriend, we agreed on Teriyaki Chicken. It turned out SO well and was so easy to make that I just had to share!
Simple Teriyaki Chicken
Serves: 2-3 people
Ingredients:
-2 Chicken Breasts
-Veggies of your choice (I cheated and picked up an asian stop-diabetes-meds.com from the produce aisle)
-Brown Rice (as much as you’d like)
-Crushed Red Pepper Flakes (to taste)
–Kikkoman Low Sodium Soy Sauce
Directions:
-Cut up the chicken breasts into cubes and marinate in Kikkoman Teriyaki Sauce for about 15-20 minutes
-Spray a frying pan with your choice of oil and cook the chicken on low until it’s done (about 10 minutes). Add red pepper flakes!
-While the chicken is cooking, fill a pot with water and add brown rice (2:1 ratio). Cook until rice is soft and water has been absorbed (about 10 minutes)
-When the chicken is almost done, throw the veggies into a separate frying pan with a little bit of soy sauce and cook until they start to brown.
-Fill a bowl or plate and enjoy!
This recipe was so easy and it was really freakin’ delicious!!! Let me know if you try it out!
