Ingredients
  

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 lb chicken breasts cut into 1" pieces
  • 1 cup broccoli florets
  • 1/2 cup white rice
  • 1 1/2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
  • 1/3 cup gluten-free soy sauce coconut aminos or tamari
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic
  • 1 teaspoon grated ginger
  • 1/2 teaspoon cornstarch

Instructions
 

  • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. On a cutting board, cut chicken into 1" pieces. Add chicken and broccoli florets. Cook for 5-7 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through, stirring occasionally. Broccoli should be tender and charred. Chicken should be fully cooked.
  • While Chicken and broccoli is cooking, make the rice in a rice maker or pot according to package directions. Substitue chicken broth for water for a better flavor! You can also use microwavable rice or frozen rice if needed.
  • While rice cooks, in a small bowl, whisk together tamari or soy sauce, brown sugar, rice vinegar, garlic, ginger, and cornstarch.
  • Once rice is cooked, stir in the cooked chicken and teriyaki sauce.
  • Add cooked white rice to the pan. Reduce heat to low, cover the pan, and cook for 5 minutes or until sauce thickens slightly.
  • Season with salt and pepper to taste. Garnish with sesame seeds and chopped green onions (optional) and serve immediately.

Notes

  • For a low-carb gluten free chicken teriyaki, swap the white rice with cauliflower rice and drizzle with a low-carb teriyaki sauce (made with ingredients like soy sauce, a sugar substitute, and ginger).
  • To make this gluten free chicken teriyaki lower in fat, use skinless, boneless chicken thighs instead of breasts, and opt for low-sodium tamari or soy sauce in the teriyaki sauce.
  • To make this gluten free chicken teriyaki recipe vegan, use tofu or cauliflower in place of chicken.
