  • 1 teaspoon ground ginger or fresh ginger for more flavor
  • 2 cloves minced garlic or garlic powder
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch for thickening the sauce
  • 2 tablespoons water to mix with cornstarch
For the Casserole
  • 1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts or chicken thighs
  • 4 cups refrigerated stir-fry vegetables or fresh vegetables
  • 2 cups cooked brown or white rice jasmine or short-grain for flavor

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and coat a 9x13-inch baking pan with non-stick spray.
  2. In a medium saucepan, combine the low-sodium soy sauce, water, brown sugar, ground ginger, and minced garlic. Heat until it comes to a gentle boil.
  3. In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of water to create a slurry. Stir it into the boiling sauce and let it simmer for another 2 minutes.
  4. Place the boneless skinless chicken breasts in the prepared baking pan surrounded by the stir-fry vegetables. Pour one cup of the thickened teriyaki sauce over the top.
  5. Cover the baking pan with aluminum foil and bake for 30 minutes. Then, shred the chicken in the pan with two forks.
  6. Stir in the cooked rice and most of the remaining teriyaki sauce, tossing everything together.
  7. Return the mixture to the oven uncovered and bake for an additional 10 minutes.
  8. Let the casserole rest for about 5 minutes before serving, drizzling any remaining teriyaki sauce over the top.
