If you love meal prep recipes that are easy, flavorful, and look amazing in your containers, these Teriyaki Chicken Fried Rice Meal Prep Bowls are going to be on repeat. This is one of those prep-and-go meals that feels like takeout but fits perfectly into a busy week. Simple ingredients, bold flavor, and minimal effort — exactly how I like to meal prep.
Juicy seasoned chicken thigh bites paired with savory fried rice, sweet roasted corn, and juicy pineapple chunks create the perfect sweet-and-savory combo. A light drizzle of teriyaki sauce ties everything together and gives the chicken that glossy, restaurant-style finish. These bowls are filling, satisfying, and reheat beautifully.
One of my favorite ways to make meal prep bowls even more satisfying is by bulking them up with veggies and fruit. Adding ingredients like corn, pineapple, or any vegetables you have on hand increases volume, texture, and flavor without feeling heavy. It’s an easy way to make your bowl look fuller, keep you satisfied longer, and enjoy bigger portions while still keeping your meals balanced and intentional.
Teriyaki Chicken Fried Rice Meal Prep Bowls
Equipment
- 1 Air Fryer
- 1 Fry Pan
- 1 Small Mixing Bowl
- 1 Large Mixing Bowl
- 4 Lunch Containers
- 4 Condiment Containers
Ingredients
- 1.25 lbs Chicken Breast (cut into bites)
- 4 cups Vegetable Fried Rice (I use Trader Joes frozen)
- 2-2/3 cups Roasted Corn (I use Trader Joes frozen)
- 2 cans Pineapple Chunks (any pineapple will do)
Teriyaki Sauce
- 3/4 cup Swerve Brown Sugar Alternative
- 3 tbsp Seasoned Rice Wine Vinegar
- 2 tsp Sesame Oil
- 3 tsp Minced Ginger
- 2 tsp Minced Garlic
- 1 cup Low Sodium Soy Sauce
Yum Yum Sauce
- 1/2 cup 0% Plain Greek Yogurt
- 1 tsp Sugar Free Ketchup
- 1/8 tsp Paprika
- 1/8 tsp Garlic Powder
- 1/8 tsp Cayenne Pepper
- 1/4 tsp Swerve Granulated Sugar Substitute
- 1/2 tbsp Seasoned Rice Wine Vinegar
- 3 tsp Unsweetened Almond Milk
Instructions
- Air fry chicken pieces at 400 for 17 minutes; flipping half way
- Fry in Pam spray your fried rice and corn together until heated up. Flip many times throughout. I like mine a bit crispy so I cook it at a higher temp. Mine are frozen so it takes about 15 minutes
- While your chicken and fried rice are cooking, mix both your yum yum sauce and teriyaki sauce then set aside.
- Drain your pineapple and set aside
- Once your chicken is cooked, put into a large bowl and pour your teriyaki sauce over.
- When everything is done, assemble your bowls!
