Sheet Pan Chicken Teriyaki and Veggies

Chicken teriyaki is a big favorite with kids everywhere—it’s something about the sauce! Those store-bought chicken teriyaki bowls may be quick and convenient, but the home-made version is so much better. With less sugar, a lot less salt and fewer preservatives, this is the way chicken teriyaki was meant to be! Your taste buds and your body will love it, and home-cooked meals are always the best thing for the kids!

This particular sheet pan chicken teriyaki recipe is the quickest, easiest and healthiest yet! With Trader Joe’s Everything But the Bagel seasoning and avocado oil, it’s absolutely bursting with flavor! And the avocado oil is heart-healthy, full of antioxidants and oleic acid—a super healthy fat. What’s more, you can mix and match your family’s favorite vegetables, making it even better!

First you'll want to preheat  your oven to 400 degrees. Then you'll season the chicken with salt and pepper and set aside on a sheet pan lined with foil or parchment paper.

Mix together all ingredients for the sauce in a small pan. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and cook until thickened, stirring frequently, about 5-10 minutes. Reserve a small amount of sauce for serving.

Use the remaining teriyaki sauce to coat all sides of the chicken. [Veggies would be coated in oil and seasoning, then go on the sheet pan at this time surrounding chicken] Cook chicken and veggies for 30-45 minutes, turning halfway thru, until done. Serve with remaining sauce, and rice or noodles.

So tasty, so easy, and healthy!
