Sesame Teriyaki Chicken Bowls

But, I will have to think about how I want to do that. So today let’s talk about food. This Sesame Teriyaki Chicken Bowls food. It is basically a sheet pan full of veggies and chicken, that I bake for a few minutes. And an absolutely delicious homemade sesame teriyaki sauce. The best ever, I might go so far to say. It is not traditional teriyaki sauce, but boy is it good.

In this recipe, about half way through the cooking process, I dump it over the chicken and veggies, stirred, and then return to the oven to finish cooking. However, if you want your sauce to be a little thicker on the veggies and chicken you could just toss them together after the veggies and chicken are cooked through. Either way you will love it, and love that it is so low mess.

Meal Prep

I have been on a big meal prep kick lately. It all started with these seriously yummy Greek Chicken Meal Prep Bowls, and then I made an Italian Chicken version, then (my favorite) a Salsa Verde Taco Meal Prep Bowl. And now I am keeping the trend going with this Teriyaki Chicken version. But you don’t have to eat it as meal prep. It is excellent on its own as dinner!

Teriyaki Chicken Bowl Things to Note:

  • Swap the veggies for your favorites. You don’t have to use this variety.
  • Add veggies onto the pan in stages while cooking to keep everything crisp tender, with heartier veggies at the beginning and the tender veggies (like snow peas) at the end.
  • Add sauce half way through for a more subtle flavor, or at end for a stronger, richer flavor.
  • This makes 4 servings, and they can store for 3-5 days in the fridge.
  • I used my favorite re-usable containers–FIND THEM HERE.
  • Check out my other meal prep ideas: Greek Chicken, Italian Chicken, and Taco Meal Prep Bowls.
  • This cook book offers 150 Meal Prep options.
  • I love serving this over rice, and to keep it simple for lunches, I use these microwavable rice bowls.

    Do you cook the chicken breasts whole, or cut them up?

      Cut them up. I will edit the recipe to reflect this. Thanks for the heads up.

    I thought I had sesame oil and I don't. What is a good substitute?

      It will have less flavor, but you could use olive oil instead. Add more sesame seeds if you have them.

    Just wanted to let you know that I just today came upon your blog and I DID read this post. You need to know that what you write about is interesting to a lot of people. Because we love food and are looking for recipe ideas and good food doesn't mean that what you write about isn't valid. Keep on writing what you do now as your children grow your life will change. Btw this looks amazing and will be great for my husband and I, our lives have continued to change because our 9 children are all grown and have their own families.

    Rachael, all your meal prep recipes look great--healthy and flavorful. Have you tried freezing any of them? Do you have comparable recipes that are freezer-friendly? My wife is disabled, and I have two jobs, so I try to make our lives easier by cooking large quantities in a giant crockpot and dividing the meals into Glad freezer containers. But the choices aren't always the most healthy choices because they don't have a lot of veggies. Thoughts? Thanks.

      Hi Bob, I would suggest prepping and freezing the meats ahead and maybe cooking veggies fresh, as many veggies don't freeze super well because of the high water content. But you could freeze the flank steak fajitas that are on my blog, or these bowls should freeze pretty well as well. I will try to come up with a few more options for you.

      This calls for 2 1-2 pounds of chicken and says it is 4 servings. Do you really intend for a single serving to be more than a half pound of chicken?

        Definitely not, you could certainly make this go further.

    I love the idea of meal prepping food for the week. It's a great time saver for busy nights, however, every time I have tried to meal prep chicken.....the chicken has a weird taste after reheating in the microwave. Has anyone else experienced this or have any suggestions to prevent this?
