Ingredients
  

For the Chicken and Rice:
  • 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken thighs cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1/2 cup low-sodium soy sauce
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 2 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 1 tbsp fresh ginger grated
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch
  • 2 cups cooked brown rice
  • 3 cups broccoli florets steamed
  • 1 tbsp sesame seeds for garnish

Method
 

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, grated ginger, minced garlic, and cornstarch. Set aside.
  2. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken pieces and cook until browned on all sides, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess fat.
  3. Pour the prepared teriyaki sauce over the chicken. Bring to a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens and coats the chicken, about 5-8 minutes.
  4. Divide the cooked brown rice, teriyaki chicken, and steamed broccoli evenly among 5 meal prep containers.
  5. Sprinkle each container with sesame seeds. Allow to cool completely before sealing and refrigerating. Meals can be stored for up to 4-5 days.

Notes

For extra flavor, marinate the chicken in half of the teriyaki sauce for at least 30 minutes before cooking. You can easily swap brown rice for quinoa or cauliflower rice to adjust the carbohydrate content. Ensure broccoli is slightly undercooked if you prefer it to have a bit of a bite after reheating.
