Teriyaki Chicken Ingredients Needed
- Chicken – You will use boneless chicken for this stir fry. You will dice up the chicken into smaller pieces. Boneless skinless breasts, tenderloins, or even thighs work great.
- Teriyaki Sauce – Store-bought teriyaki marinade is what I used for the base for the chicken. If you prefer make homemade.
- Vegetables – To make it simple I reached for a bag of frozen stir fry vegetables. Feel free to prep fresh if you prefer that method.
- Rice – This is optional but is a fantastic way to stretch the stir fry. The rice will soak up all the extra sauce and elevate the flavor even more.
Pro Tip: If you want to add a little extra kick to your muffins, try adding a pinch of cayenne pepper to the dry mix. It will give your muffins a subtle and spicy flavor.

- If you like a bit of broil to vegetables at the end of cooking turn the oven over to broil to create that golden crust on top of the veggies and the chicken.
- Feel free to swap the chicken with sliced steak or even pork if you prefer that option.
- About the last 5-8 minutes toss on some marinated shrimp for a double meat dinner idea.

How to know chicken is done?
Chicken is done when it reads 165 degrees internally when you use a meat thermometer. Another way to tell the chicken is done is the liquid that is released is clear and not a milky color. And when you slice into the chicken there is no pink left in the chicken.
Does this recipe double well?
Go right ahead and double the sheet pan recipe. Just make sure you are leaving the chicken and vegetables in an even layer. Otherwise, you will get an uneven cook on the meat and vegetables. If need be use two sheet pans for cooking up the dinner.
