Ingredients
  

1 lb (450g) boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into bite-sized pieces

1 cup broccoli florets

1 cup bell peppers (red, yellow, green), sliced

1 cup snap peas

1 tablespoon vegetable oil

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 inch ginger, grated

1/3 cup teriyaki sauce (store-bought or homemade)

1 tablespoon sesame seeds (for garnish)

2 green onions, sliced (for garnish)

Cooked rice or quinoa (for serving)

Instructions
 

Prep Your Ingredients: Start by cutting the chicken into bite-sized pieces and chopping the vegetables. Having everything ready to go will streamline your cooking process.

    Heat the Pan: In a large skillet or wok, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the minced garlic and grated ginger, sautéing for about 30 seconds until fragrant.

      Cook the Chicken: Add the chicken pieces to the skillet, stirring frequently for about 5-7 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked and golden brown. Ensure it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).

        Add the Veggies: Once the chicken is nearly done, toss in the broccoli, bell peppers, and snap peas. Stir-fry for an additional 3-4 minutes, until the vegetables are tender-crisp.

          Add the Teriyaki Sauce: Pour the teriyaki sauce over the chicken and vegetables, mixing well to coat everything evenly. Continue to stir-fry for another 1-2 minutes until everything is heated through and the sauce has slightly thickened.

            Serve: Spoon the stir-fry over cooked rice or quinoa to create a wholesome meal. Garnish with sesame seeds and sliced green onions for added crunch and flavor.

              Enjoy: Serve hot and savor the delightful blend of flavors in every bite!
