Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a small pot, whisk together minced garlic, grated ginger, raw honey, coconut aminos, and vegetable broth. Heat over medium heat until simmering, about 3–4 minutes. Gradually whisk in gluten-free flour until the sauce thickens, about 2–3 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
  2. In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of sesame oil over medium-high heat. Add diced chicken breasts, stirring frequently until golden brown and cooked through, around 6–8 minutes. Pour in the prepared teriyaki sauce, stirring to coat the chicken evenly, and let it simmer for an additional 2 minutes.
  3. In a separate pan, heat the remaining tablespoon of sesame oil over medium heat. Add frozen stir-fry vegetables and sauté for 5–6 minutes until crisp-tender. Remove from heat.
  4. Divide cooked brown rice or quinoa among meal prep containers. Top with teriyaki chicken and sautéed veggies. Sprinkle sesame seeds on top.
