Ingredients
  

1 lb boneless, skinless chicken thighs

1/2 cup soy sauce (low sodium recommended)

1/4 cup honey

2 tbsp rice vinegar

2 tbsp sesame oil

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 inch fresh ginger, grated

1 tbsp cornstarch mixed with 2 tbsp water (for thickening)

2 cups cooked jasmine rice

1 cup broccoli florets

1 cup bell peppers, sliced

1 cup snap peas

1 tbsp sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)

2 green onions, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Marinate the Chicken: In a bowl, mix soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, sesame oil, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Add the chicken thighs, ensuring they're coated well. Cover and marinate for at least 30 minutes (or up to 2 hours in the refrigerator for deeper flavor).

    Cook the Chicken: Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Remove chicken from the marinade (reserve the marinade) and add to the pan. Cook for 5-7 minutes on each side, or until the chicken is fully cooked and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).

      Make the Teriyaki Sauce: In the same skillet, add the reserved marinade and bring to a simmer. Add the cornstarch mixture to thicken the sauce. Stir for 2-3 minutes until it reaches your desired consistency.

        Steam the Veggies: While the chicken cooks, steam the broccoli, bell peppers, and snap peas until tender-crisp (about 5-7 minutes). You can use a steamer basket or a microwave with a covered dish.

          Assemble the Bowls: Start with a base of jasmine rice in each bowl. Slice the cooked teriyaki chicken and place on top of the rice. Arrange the steamed veggies around the chicken.

            Garnish and Serve: Drizzle extra teriyaki sauce over the top if desired. Sprinkle sesame seeds and chopped green onions for a flavorful finish. Enjoy your delicious Teriyaki Chicken Bliss Bowls!
