Ingredients
- 1 pound Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 0.25 cup Soy sauce (low sodium)
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 1 tablespoon Rice vinegar
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Ginger, freshly grated
- 1 teaspoon Cornstarch
- 3 tablespoons Water
- 1 teaspoon Sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)
- 2 tablespoons Scallions, sliced (optional, for garnish)
- 0 as needed Cooking spray
Directions
Step 1
Prepare the chicken by trimming any excess fat and cutting it into bite-sized cubes. Set aside.
Step 2
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, minced garlic, and grated ginger to make the teriyaki sauce.
Step 3
In a separate small bowl, mix cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of water to create a slurry. Set aside for later.
Step 4
Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat and spray it lightly with cooking spray.
Step 5
Add the chicken to the skillet in a single layer. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is fully cooked and no longer pink in the center.
Step 6
Reduce the heat to low and pour the teriyaki sauce over the cooked chicken. Stir to coat the chicken evenly in the sauce.
Step 7
Add the cornstarch slurry to the skillet and gently stir. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until the sauce thickens.
Step 8
If desired, sprinkle sesame seeds and sliced scallions over the chicken as a garnish.
Step 9
Serve the WW Teriyaki Chicken warm over steamed rice or alongside your favorite vegetables for a complete meal.
