BENTO CHICKEN TERIYAKI

This recipe is adapted from one in Bento Boxes by Naomi Kijima. It is scaled for a single lunchbox (bento box) sized serving. Add this to a big bowl of rice and veggies, maybe with some Japanese type pickles, and you have a great lunch! This recipe is not a quick recipe, though; cooking time includes marinating time. I would suggest starting the chicken in the marinade, then starting your rice, then fixing everything else while you wait for these two to finish.

Time 40m

Yield 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon mirin
1 teaspoon sugar
4 ounces boneless chicken (breast, tenders, thighs, whatever you have)
1/2 tablespoon cooking oil
3 tablespoons water

Steps:

  • Mix first 3 ingredients together in bowl big enough to hold the chicken. Add the chicken. Let this marinate for 30 minutes, turning over halfway through.
  • Heat oil in a pan over medium heat.
  • Take the chicken out and pat dry. Reserve marinade. Put chicken skin side down (if you aren't using skinless) in pan and cook until browned on that side (just a minute or two) and then flip and brown the other side.
  • Pour reserved marinade over chicken and cover tightly. Lower heat and simmer until chicken is done, about 5 minutes.
  • Remove cover and raise heat back to medium high. Reduce marinade until it is more of a glaze. Toss chicken in glaze to cover.
  • NOTE: You could certainly substitute beef or tofu for the chicken in this recipe. Just adjust the cooking accordingly.

BENTO -- TERIYAKI CHICKEN IN A HURRY



Bento -- Teriyaki Chicken in a Hurry image

This is a quick work night dinner we throw together when we are busy. Tasty and healthy, but best of all, my family will eat it! :) I usually grab a mixed fresh bag of broccoli, cauliflower and carrots when time is short and steam it 3/4 of the way through the rice ( times depend on your individual steamer - mine takes 50 minutes for long grain brown rice so I time the rest of mel accordingly). Brown rice is definitely a heathy choice, a little nutty or firmer in texture, but give them this flavorful dish and they will gulp down the rice and those dreaded veggies! **Kikkoman Teriyaki Baste and Glaze with Honey and Pineapple** is what gives this recipe the ease and flavor.

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 cups long grain brown rice
4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
12 ounces fresh broccoli and cauliflower mix (with carrots)
6 ounces kikkoman teriyaki baste and glaze, with honey and pineapple

Steps:

  • Steam rice accoring to directions for your steamer. (I use a Krups with multiple bastes so 3/4 way through I can add my veggie basket to steam).
  • As rice steams half way through time, grill your chicken breasts.
  • When rice is 3/4 of the way cooked, steam your vegetables (at this point, chicken should be almost done).
  • Baste chicken with teriyaki glaze, turning once and repeating.
  • Remove from heat and allow meat to rest for 5 minutes.
  • Plate rice, vegetables and sliced chicken breast.
  • Drizzle additional teriyaki sauce as desired.
  • Enjoy!
