Ingredients you need
For Homemade Teriyaki Sauce
- 2/3 cup Soy Sauce (Low Sodium)
- 1/2 cup of Water
- 3 tbsp of Brown Sugar – Brown sugar is preferred. But you can use light or dark brown sugar, although if not available, go with regular white sugar.
- 2 tbsp of Honey
- 3 tbsp of Rice Vinegar – For the Teriyaki Sauce recipe rice vinegar is preferred.
- 1/2 tsp of Ginger Powder
- 1/2 tsp of Garlic Powder – This sauce requires fresh garlic. Finely chop all the garlic or you can mince it. But I suggest using garlic powder.
Other Ingredients
- 4-5 tbsp of Olive Oil – You’ll use olive oil to cook the chicken before adding the sauce, and you’ll also need this oil while marinating the chicken.
- 1/2 tsp of Garlic Minced
- 500 grams of Chicken Breast (cut into bite sizes) – You can use chicken thighs or breasts for this recipe and I always use either one myself. But you can use any type of chicken you like, any type of chicken will work great for this recipe.
- Salt and Pepper as per taste – You can use them as per your choice during the chicken season. In fact, both of these are very important for this recipe, especially for the Teriyaki Chicken Marinade.
- 400 grams of broccoli (small florets)
- 1 nos. Red bell pepper (sliced)
- 1 tbsp of Soy Sauce – Although bottled teriyaki sauce and soy sauce are almost the same color, in this recipe I recommend using low-sodium soy sauce to make it a little healthier.
- 2 tbsp of Water
- 2 tbsp of cornstarch
Step by Step Recipe of Homemade WW Teriyaki Chicken and Broccoli Stir Fry
Preparation for the sauce first
Take a medium-size mixing bowl and gather all sauce ingredients like soy sauce, water, brown sugar, honey, ginger powder, garlic powder, and vinegar.
Make a smooth mixture and keep it aside.
Cook the chicken
- Heat a wok or frying pan with 4 tbsp of Olive oil.
- When the oil is hot enough, add chicken pieces with 1/2 tbsp of salt.
- After 2 minutes of frying, add broccoli florets along with bell peppers and continue cooking.
- Fry chicken until the color turns golden brown [10-12 minutes]. Then Put them out from the pan.
- Heat the same pan again with 1 tbsp of olive oil.
- Add 1/2 tsp of minced garlic and fry for few seconds until a pleasant aroma has come.
- Now add the sauce mixture into the pan and stir until the sauce starts bubbling.
- Add fried chicken, broccoli, and pepper into the pan again and saute for 1-2 minutes more.
- Teriyaki chicken and broccoli are ready now, but if you want the thick saucy consistency like the restaurant, follow the rest of my steps.
- In a small bowl, add 2 tbsp of cornstarch and 2 tbsp of water. Make a smooth mixture and add to the pan.
- Saute for 2-3 minutes more, and you can see the whole chicken become a thicker consistency.
- Serve immediately with some garnishing of roasted sesame seeds and chopped spring onions.
