Notes
- Make it paleo: Opt for coconut aminos in place of soy and coconut palm sugar or maple syrup for the brown sugar.
- Cuts of chicken: Boneless chicken breasts are the most common but boneless, skinless, chicken thighs work well too. You may need to cook them longer though to remove the juice.
- Vegetables: snow peas, cauliflower, or even green beans work in place of broccoli.
- Store the teriyaki chicken and broccoli skillet in the fridge for up to 5 days in an airtight container.
- Freeze it: Let the chicken and broccoli cool fully before placing it in an airtight freezer container or plastic baggie. Try to get all the air out of the bag first. Like this, it will freeze for up to one month. make sure to let it thaw in the fridge before reheating.
