Chicken Teriyaki Casserole

👩‍🍳 Directions

Preheat Oven
Set your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Prep Base Layer
Spread the uncooked rice evenly across the bottom of a large baking dish.

Add Liquid
Pour the chicken broth and teriyaki sauce over the rice. Stir gently to combine.

Cook Chicken
In a skillet over medium heat, heat olive oil. Add diced chicken and cook until browned on all sides. Season with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.

Combine & Bake
Add the cooked chicken, broccoli florets, and sliced carrots into the baking dish. Spread evenly.

Cover & Cook
Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 40–45 minutes, or until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed.

Optional Toasting
Remove foil, sprinkle sesame seeds on top, and bake uncovered for an additional 5 minutes.

Finish & Serve
Let rest for 5 minutes. Garnish with chopped green onions and serve warm.

✨ Variations & Tips

Vegetarian Version: Use tofu or extra veggies like mushrooms and bell peppers.

Grain Swap: Substitute quinoa for rice for added nutrition.

Spicy Kick: Sprinkle red pepper flakes before serving.

Time Saver: Use pre-cooked chicken like rotisserie or grilled strips.

Storage: Great for leftovers—tastes just as good the next day!
