Sheet pan chicken teriyaki is a weeknight family favorite. I love it because it’s so easy to make and healthy. The kids love it because it tastes delicious. This teriyaki chicken recipe is made with juicy chicken breast, stir-fry vegetables and a flavorful sweet and tangy sauce. It’s super simple to throw together and all I have to do is make some cauliflower rice for myself and regular white rice for the rest of the family.

Sheet Pan Dinner Recipes

I used to not understand the beauty of a sheet pan meal. But now that I have developed a few sheet pan recipes that are tried and true I find myself turning to them more and more. Especially when I don’t have much time to prep. They are ideal for weeknights when everyone is running in a hundred different directions, yet I want to serve a family meal.

My family loves anything with a sweet and savory flavor profile and this homemade teriyaki glaze is so simple to make. All that is required is chicken breast (I use organic) and a bag of frozen stir-fry veggies. The rest of the ingredients are probably items you already have in your pantry (like brown sugar and cornstarch). This delicious sheet pan meal takes only 10 minutes to prep, 30 minutes to bake and is packed with protein.

6. Drizzle a light amount of teriyaki sauce on each piece of chicken, coating the top and the bottom.
7. Place chicken in a preheated oven for 10 minutes.
8. Remove from the oven and flip the chicken breasts. Add frozen vegetables to the baking sheet surrounding the chicken. Lightly drizzle avocado oil on the vegetables and toss. Sprinkle pepper on the chicken and vegetables if desired. Place back in the oven to bake for 20 additional minutes.
