Ingredients
  

For the Teriyaki Chicken:

  • 1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts, cubed
  • 1/2 cup teriyaki sauce store-bought or homemade
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic
  • 1 teaspoon minced ginger

For the Stir Fry:

  • 2 cups of assorted vegetables like bell peppers, broccoli, and sugar snap peas
  • 1 cup of prepared rice options include white, brown, or cauliflower rice for a low-carb alternative
  • 1/2 cup sliced green onions
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste

For the Topping:

  • 1 cup shredded cheese such as mozzarella or cheddar
  • Sesame seeds for garnish optional

Instructions
 

  • Marinate the chicken: In a bowl, mix the cubed chicken breasts with teriyaki sauce, minced garlic, and ginger. Allow it to soak for a minimum of 15-20 minutes as you get the remaining ingredients ready.
  • Cook the chicken: Warm the olive oil in a frying pan on medium heat. Add the marinated chicken and cook for 6-8 minutes until fully cooked and browned. Set aside.
  • Prepare the stir fry: In that same frying pan, add the sesame oil and heat it over medium. Add the mixed vegetables and sauté for 3-5 minutes until they’re crisp-tender. Stir in the cooked rice and sliced green onions. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Assemble the casserole: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). In a large baking dish, spread the cooked stir-fried vegetables and rice evenly. Layer the cooked teriyaki chicken over the vegetables.
  • Add the topping: Sprinkle the shredded cheese over the top of the chicken and vegetables. If you like, sprinkle sesame seeds for garnish.
  • Bake the casserole: Place in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and has a bubbly appearance.
  • Serve and enjoy: Remove the casserole from the oven, let it cool for a few minutes, and serve warm. Garnish with extra green onions or sesame seeds if desired.
