Key Ingredients For This Complete Meal – Teriyaki Chicken Sheet Pan Dinner

  1. Teriyaki Sauce : This is a store bought pre-made teriyaki sauce and can be found by the soy sauces and other Asian ingredients. 
  2. Soy Sauce : Depending on dietary needs or salt preference, use full sodium soy sauce or the reduced-sodium. The veggies and chicken crave salt and flavor so I recommend using the regular, full salt soy sauce when making this recipe because there is no added salt. 
  3. Honey
  4. Rice Vinegar
  5. Garlic Cloves : Use fresh garlic cloves that have been minced or pressed, garlic paste from a tube, or chopped garlic from a jar. 
  6. Grated Fresh Ginger : Ginger paste can also be used. 
  7. Vegetable Oil : Use a neutral flavored oil if substituting the vegetable oil; canola oil or avocado oil are other neutral oils that would work well. 
  8. Black Pepper
  9. Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts
  10. Broccoli Florets
  11. Bell Peppers : You need two bell peppers of any color. I like to use red, orange, or yellow bell pepper when making this chicken teriyaki. 
  12. Snow Peas : Also called and labeled as ‘snap peas’ sometimes. 
  13. Sesame Seeds & Sliced Green Onions : This is an optional garnish but I highly recommend it!

How To Make Sheet Pan Teriyaki Chicken (Semi-Homemade Savory Teriyaki Sauce)

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet (12″17″ or 13″x18″) with parchment paper. It’s also called a half sheet pan or cookie sheet. Make sure the one you are using has rimmed sides on it. 

In a small bowl, whisk together the teriyaki sauce, soy sauce, honey, rice wine vinegar, garlic, ginger, vegetable oil, and black pepper until combined well.

Place the chicken breasts onto the prepared sheet pan and arrange the vegetables around the chicken. Pour the teriyaki sauce mixture over everything. Use your clean hands to make sure all the vegetables and chicken are covered in some teriyaki sauce.

Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the chicken reaches a safe internal temperature of 165 degrees. During the last 5 minutes of the cookie time, baste the chicken with the reserved teriyakis sauce for extra flavor.

What Are Some Substitutions I Can Make?

  • Soy Sauce : You can substitute tamari sauce, coconut aminos, or liquid aminos for the soy sauce. You can also use full salt soy sauce or reduced-sodium depending on your salt preference. 
  • Rice Vinegar : Apple cider vinegar or white wine vinegar can be used if needed. 
  • Honey : Maple syrup, agave nectar, or brown sugar can be used in place of honey. 
  • Chicken : Chicken tenderloins, chicken chunks, thin cut chicken breasts, or substitute the chicken with tofu or shrimp, or add more vegetables to make it vegetarian.

What Do I Serve With Sheet Pan Chicken Teriyaki?

A classic combination for serving is over a bed of fluffy rice – white rice, brown rice, cauliflower rice, or try this Coconut Rice for a delicious flavor twist. You can also make this low-carb and just serve it as is with a serving of the chicken + vegetables + extra sauce drizzled over. You can also have some extra soy sauce, teriyaki marinade or sauce on the side if someone wants some extra sauce for eating. 

Serve the chicken teriyaki and vegetables alongside some asian-style noodles like udon, soba, or rice noodles. Toss the noodles in some sesame oil, soy sauce dressing, or teriyaki marinade & sauce for extra flavor. You can also make these Sesame Noodles

Pair with a fresh salad or mixed greens dressed with an Asian vinaigrette or ginger-soy dressing.

Recipe FAQ’s

Can I Marinate The Chicken?

Yes, marinating the chicken ahead of time will enhance the flavors. Marinate the chicken pieces in the teriyaki sauce mixture for 30 minutes (inside the fridge) before adding it onto the sheet pan and then using the teriyaki sauce to pour over the chicken + veggies before baking (like the recipe instructs).  

Can I Use Boneless Chicken Thighs Instead of Chicken Breasts?

Yes, chicken thighs can be used but you will want to adjust the cooking time accordingly to prevent them from becoming overcooked. Stick to boneless chicken if using another cut. 

How Do I Reheat Leftovers?

Place the chicken teriyaki in a microwave-safe dish, cover it loosely with a microwave-safe lid or plastic wrap, and heat in 30-second intervals until heated through. You can also reheat leftovers in the oven at 350 degrees F, on a baking sheet, cover with foil and heat for 15-20 minutes. 

Can I Freeze Leftovers?

Allow the chicken teriyaki to cool completely before placing it inside an airtight container or bag (freezer-safe), and freeze for up to 3 months. Thaw overnight in the fridge before reheating.

Ingredients

  • ½ teaspoon black pepper

  • 2 cups broccoli florets
  • 2 bell peppers (cut into 1-inch chunks)
  • 1 cup snow peas
  • 1/4 cup teriyaki sauce (for basting)
  • sesame seeds & sliced green onions (for garnish)

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400℉. Line a rimmed baking sheet (12"17" or 13"x18") with parchment paper.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the teriyaki sauce, soy sauce, honey, rice wine vinegar, vegetable oil, garlic, ginger, and black pepper until combined well.

Notes

TIP : Mix up the teriyakis sauce and marinate the chicken in it for at least 30 minutes (up to 4 hours), in the fridge, before adding it onto the sheet pan to bake. Use that same teriyaki sauce to pour over the chicken + vegetables. 
Chicken : I prefer to cut the chicken breasts in half so I end up with 6 smaller pieces of chicken instead of 3 big ones. Leave the chicken breasts whole, slice them thin (horizontal), or cut them in half. Cook time may vary if the chicken is sliced really thinly. Watch the temperature and once it’s up to the safe internal temperature of 165 degrees then they’re done. The recipe calls for 3-4 chicken breasts, if they’re smaller then use 4, but you will only need 3 of them if they are larger pieces. 
Bell Peppers : Use either red pepper, yellow, or orange in this recipe. Pick two different colors or use two of the same color.
