You’ll need the following ingredients to make this teriyaki chicken and vegetables recipe:

2 large carrots, cut into match sticks
2 stalks of celery, cut on the diagonal

How to make this teriyaki chicken recipe

Like most Chinese stir fries, this is an easy dish to prepare. It is perfect for a busy week night, when time is at a premium.

And it’s absolutely a must when you are cooped up at home and miss your favorite take-away meals.

To start, combine the ingredients for the teriyaki sauce and set aside.

The first step is to cook your chicken, celery, and carrots in toasted sesame oil over a medium high heat until the chicken is no longer pink and the veggies are almost tender.

While they are cooking, add the broccoli to the microwave and cook a couple of minutes until it is just starting to get tender. You could also just add them to the pan but it will increase the cooking time a bit.

Now add the broccoli to the chicken and veggies and stir in the teriyaki sauce. Cook until the sauce starts to thicken and everything is well incorporated.

The recipe is great on its on, but if you want to make it more hearty, pour the mixture over some cooked rice or noodles. Enjoy!
