How did you make the rice?
I made fried rice using leftover brown rice from the night before and this is how I did it:
In a saute pan over medium heat, I added a tablespoon of butter and a small diced onion and cooked until translucent. I added one minced garlic clove and cooked for just another minute. In a small bowl on the side I scrambled two eggs and then moved all the onions and garlic to the edge of my wok shaped pan. I then scrambled the eggs until they were nearly done and tossed my cold rice from the night before on top as well as about 1/4 cup frozen corn, carrots and peas. Closed the lid and let the veggies begin to warm. After about 5 minutes, I combined all the ingredients and added 1/4 cup of chicken broth (low sodium). Stirring every couple of minutes the last ingredient was 3 tablespoons of soy sauce or teriyaki sauce if you prefer it.
Nathan, I just got home from China. This isn’t real Chinese food… it looks delicious and edible 🙂
Haha just playing..
Well, sort of. Lets just say if I never ate authentic Chinese again I’d be alright.
I love, love, love this blog 🙂
Ahhh thanks Anna!
This looks great, but….teriyaki is actually Japanese, not Chinese. 🙂 Teriyaki Japanese, sweet and sour Chinese. At any rate, this will be a must try for me!
LOL thanks! Sorry for my error!! 🙂
just making sure you didn’t make a mistake-do you have to add the 1/2 cup teriyaki sauce plus all these other ingredients?
2 tablespoons light soy sauce
l teaspoon grated ginger
1 tablespoon minced garlic
⅓ cup brown sugar
1 cup low sodium chicken broth
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon cornstarch
Thanks!
And can I use chicken breast?
You do use the 1/2 cup of teriyaki sauce in addition to the rest of the ingredients listed. While simmering in the crock pot the ingredients usually reduce and form a much thicker sauce depending on the length of time you allow them to cook. You can absolutely use chicken breast instead of chicken thighs I just used what I had on hand that day. “Happy Crocking”
thank you!
I know this will sound a little stupid – but I’m not a very good cook – are you saying that I cook the chicken before adding it to the crockpot? Then I pour the liquid out of the crockpot to thicken?
The chicken should be raw and cut up into bite size pieces when you place it in the crockpot. After the cooking time has elapsed you can add the liquid to a sauce pan to make it a thicker consistency. To keep the corn starch from clumping up in the remaining sauce add the tablespoon of cornstarch to a small bowl with a small amount of the liquid to form a loose paste, turn the sauce on medium heat, add your cornstarch paste and then watch the sauce closely stirring often. It shouldn’t take more than five minutes to thicken. Good luck and happy crocking!
If you double the amount of chicken do you also double the amount of sauce ingredients?
We love extra sauce for the top of the rice I make to accompany the chicken so I would suggest doubling it however it isn’t absolutely necessary. When you place the chicken in the crock pot just make sure there is enough liquid to cover the poultry otherwise it might dry out.
I made this yesterday! it was great, and the flavour was just what i was looking for! about an hour and a half before it was done I added broccoli, ,cauliflower, peppers, mushrooms, onions, carrots and celery, and it turned out fantastic! thanks so much for sharing this recipe!
So glad you enjoyed it! Adding veggies an hour before it finishes is such a great idea! Thanks for inspiring dinner tomorrow!
Chicken Teriyaki is Japanese food, not Chinese …….
I’m sure she knows this, but In her defense, you usually see these teriyaki dishes in CHINESE restaurants and when you order from them. So technically shes not wrong. She merely stated she liked Chinese food, not that this was Chinese food. You do get this food from Chinese restaurants even though the food itself history wise did originate in japan.
