1 cup broccoli florets
1/2 cup green beans
1/2 red bell pepper (chopped)
1/4 cup pineapple chunks (optional)
1 cup edamame beans (defrosted (optional))
3/4 - 1 cup teriyaki sauce (homemade recipe below or your favorite store-bought)
Lunch Containers
Your favorite side: quinoa, rice, or potatoes
1/4 cups low sodium soy sauce
4-5 Tablespoons honey (depending on how sweet you like it)
4 Tablespoons rice wine vinegar
1-1/2 teaspoons sesame oil (plus more for drizzling on vegetables)
3 garlic cloves (minced)
3/4 teaspoon grated or ground ginger
1 Tablespoon cornstarch
3 Tablespoons water
salt and black pepper (to taste)

Steps:

  • Preheat grill to medium-high heat or the oven to 425 degrees F.
  • Cut four 18 x 12-inch squares of foil* and layout on a flat surface.
  • If making the Homemade Teriyaki Sauce:
  • In a saucepan over medium heat, whisk together soy sauce, honey, vinegar, sesame oil, garlic, ginger, cornstarch, and water until combined. Bring to a simmer, stirring frequently, until sauce thickens and bubbles. Remove from heat and set aside.
  • Place one chicken breast in the middle of each piece of foil and divide the vegetables evenly into each packet, arranging them around the chicken.
  • Drizzle the chicken and vegetables with olive oil and season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Brush teriyaki sauce on both sides of the chicken and vegetables - reserving enough for later.
  • Fold the foil over the chicken and seal to close off the packets.
  • If cooking on the grill
  • Place foil packets onto grill and grill for 7-8 minutes, then flip over and grill for an additional 6-8 minutes (depending on the thickness of the chicken) or until chicken is cooked through.
  • Remove from the grill and carefully open the foil packets.
  • If cooking in the oven Place foil packets on a baking sheet and cook for 25-30 minutes (or until chicken is cooked through, rotating tray once). Time varies depending on the thickness of the chicken. Remove baking sheet from oven.
  • Brush chicken with reserved sauce and top with sesame seeds and green onions (if desired) and serve immediately with quinoa, rice or your favorite side.
  • For meal prep Divide chicken and vegetables into lunch containers. Add your favorite side.
