Teriyaki Chicken Bowls with Ginger

Servings: 4 | Time: 30 minutes active | Difficulty: Easy

Ingredients:

  • 1 Tbsp. (15 ml) peanut oil
  • 1 lb. (455 g) boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs, cut up into bite-sized pieces
  • 1 cup (120 g) carrots, julienned
  • 1 cup (65 g) snow peas
  • 1 cup (90 g) red peppers, thinly sliced
  • 1 handful bean sprouts
  • Teriyaki Sauce (see recipe below)
  • 3 cups (450–600 g) cooked rice

Teriyaki Sauce:

  • 1 Tbsp. (8 g) cornstarch
  • 1 Tbsp. (15 ml) cold water
  • 3 Tbsp. (18 g) stevia
  • 1/2 cup (120 ml) soy sauce
  • 1/4 cup (60 ml) rice vinegar
