Teriyaki Chicken & Rice Bowls

Are you team chicken THIGH or chicken BREAST? I love chicken breast only for the zero point factor but the flavor in thighs are next level! These bowls are so delicious with chicken that has marinated for hours.

I could eat teriyaki with every meal. No matter if it is teriyaki chicken or beef or stir fry…teriyaki sauce makes everything better.

Teriyaki with sticky rice is my all time favorite. The difference between sticky and standard is that sticky rice lacks amylose while regular white rice contains up to 30% amylose. The difference results in grains that separate in regular rice while sicky rice remains sticky.

Jasmine rice is my next favorite! The sweet smelling rice just has such an amazing aroma and the slight sweet flavor is soooo delish!


Teriyaki Chicken & Rice Bowls

I went with chicken thighs for these teriyaki chicken bowls as I really prefer thigh meat with teriyaki. Well let's be honest, I prefer chicken thighs for everything.
These bowls are so delicious and yet you save tons of points and calories by using sugar free teriyaki sauce rather than the full sugar ones.
