Sheet Pan Teriyaki Chicken and Vegetables
Hey everybody! It’s Kelly from Life Made Sweeter! I am so excited to share some fun new recipes with all of you on The Recipe Critic! I’m a mom of two young kiddos so I’m all about family friendly recipes that don’t require too much effort!
Sheet pan meals are the ones I turn to the most when I don’t have a ton of time to prep before dinner starts. They’re perfect for busy weeknights and you can toss in any veggies you like or have on hand. This Sheet Pan Chicken Teriyaki is one our favorites and shows up regularly at our house. My family absolutely loves anything with a sweet, tangy and savory combination and you get all of those amazing flavors with this simple homemade teriyaki glaze.
Everything cooks up on a sheet pan while soaking in the flavor-packed sweet and sticky glaze. The chicken stays nice and tender while the broccoli and carrots roast up caramelized and crispy. The best part about this dish is how little effort it takes, plus you’ve got one amazing meal your entire family will love!
Enjoy it alone or serve it over your favorite rice or quinoa. Either way you choose, it will be so much easier and healthier than takeout!
How Do You Make Sheet Pan Teriyaki Chicken and Vegetables?
For the glaze:
- In a medium 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.
For the chicken and vegetables
- Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a large sheet pan with parchment paper or foil coated with cooking spray and set aside.
- Season each side of the chicken with salt and black pepper then drizzle spoonfuls of glaze over the chicken coating well on both sides. Reserve at least half of the glaze for later.
- Cook in preheated oven for 20 minutes then remove the pan. Top chicken with additional glaze, flip chicken and glaze again.
- Arrange the broccoli florets, carrots, edamame and pineapples in a single layer around the chicken. Season with black pepper and drizzle with 1/4 teaspoon of sesame oil and teriyaki glaze and toss to coat. Return to the oven and bake for another 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and juices run clear.**
- Remove pan from oven, slice chicken into strips and drizzle with remaining sauce. Serve over rice or quinoa and garnish with green onions and sesame seeds, if desired.
Can I Prepare Teriyaki Chicken Ahead of Time?
Yes! This is a great recipe to even marinade the ingredients in the sauce for that added flavor. After preparing it ahead of time you will want to leave it in the refrigerator over night. I would recommend baking it within 24-48 hours of preparing it.
How Do You Make This into a Meal Plan for the Week?
This is a great way to have a healthy meal each day! I love meal pans and being able to enjoy them just by microwaving them up for a few minutes and have a delicious meal each day that is healthy and filling. On Sunday I love to prepare this sheet pan meal and divide it into 4 to 6 air tight containers that I will store in the refrigerator. Each day I will open on up and microwave for about 3 to 4 minutes. Stir it up, then about 2 more minutes in the microwave. You do not want to overheat the chicken or it is too firm. If that chicken already feels warm after the first 3 to 4 minutes adjust the time so it is not overheated in the microwave.
What Other Vegetables Can be Baked with this recipe?
- Asparagus
- Cauliflower
- Green Beans
- Green, Red and Yellow Peppers
- Mushrooms
- Onions
- Snap Peas
- Water Chestnuts
What Do You Serve with Teriyaki Chicken?
I love a good rice to mix in with the vegetables and Teriyaki chicken. White rice, jasmine rice, brown rice or even wild rice work really well for this meal.
