Step-by-Step Instructions 👩🍳
Step 1: Marinate the Chicken
Start by cubing your chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces. Place them in a bowl or a zip-top bag, then add enough G Hughes Teriyaki Sauce to coat well usually around 1/3 to 1/2 cup. Give it a good mix, making sure each piece is evenly coated, and let it marinate for 1-2 hours in the fridge. This step infuses the chicken with that delicious teriyaki flavor and helps keep it moist while baking.
Step 2: Prep the Veggies
While the chicken is marinating, it’s a great time to chop up the veggies. Dice your onion and bell peppers into large chunks, cut the broccoli into bite-sized florets, and halve the mushrooms. Arrange all the veggies in a large mixing bowl and set them aside.
Step 3: Mix Everything Together
Once the chicken is ready, add it to the bowl with the veggies. Pour in a little extra teriyaki sauce if you want a stronger flavor just eyeball it based on how saucy you like it! Next, stir in the minced garlic and ginger, making sure everything is well combined. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Step 4: Assemble the Pan
Transfer everything to a large baking dish, spreading the chicken and veggies out into an even layer. Dot the top with the butter pieces; as the butter melts, it’ll add a layer of richness to the dish and help the veggies get that perfect roasted texture.
Step 5: Bake the Dish
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Place the baking dish in the oven and let it bake for 45 minutes to an hour, stirring once halfway through. The dish is done when the chicken is cooked through and the veggies are tender and slightly caramelized. If you like extra-browned edges, switch on the broiler for the last 5 minutes of cooking.
