Teriyaki Chicken Meal Prep Bowls
Sticky homemade teriyaki on juicy thighs, all week. 47g protein.
Juicy chicken thighs seared until golden, then glazed in a homemade teriyaki that's glossy, garlicky and nowhere near as sugary as the bottled kind. A dusting of cornstarch on the chicken gives it a light crust that the sauce clings to, even after 4 days in the fridge. With fluffy rice and crisp-tender broccoli, it's the takeout box you actually want on a Wednesday.
