Today I am linking up with one of my favorite bloggers Andrea over at Momfessionals for her Recipe Club to share an Easy Peasy Teriyaki Chicken Bowl!
Disclosure: I don't know if this even qualifies for a recipe because it's so DANG easy and only requires 3 things and a microwave but I promise, it's TASTY!

A few years ago I discovered Trader Joe's Teriyaki Chicken and with a bit of hesistance I bought a bag fearful that it would be gross. Well it was anything but gross, it's the greatness of Teriyaki Chicken without having to cook any chicken or whip up any sauces. I love this stuff with some steamed white rice and veggies. I posted the recipe using frozen Jasmine rice that heats up in the microwave but really you can combine this Teriyaki Chicken with anything your heart desires. Want to omit rice and serve it over sauteed veggies? Go for it. Want to use steamed brown rice instead of white rice? You got it. You can also serve it over some Chow Mein Noodles!
This recipe feeds 4
What you will need:
1 bag (21 OZ) of Trader Joe's BBQ Teriyaki Chicken
2 Pockets of Frozen Thai Jasmine Rice (Found in the frozen Veggie Section)
1 Bag of Birds Eye's Steam Fresh Frozen Veggies (Broccoli, Cauliflower and Carrots)
1 Bag of Birds Eye's Steam Fresh Frozen Veggies (Broccoli, Cauliflower and Carrots)
This is what the Trader Joe's Teriyaki Chicken Looks like!
I found this Rice at Safeway but you can get any other kind elsewhere
Easy Steamfresh Fresh Frozen Veggies!
Okay, empty your chicken into a large microwaveable bowl and heat it up in the microwave for a 4-5 minutes according to directions and then empty your sauce packets on top and heat up another minute to defrost the Teriyaki sauce on the heated chicken.
Take your pouches of rice and heat them up in the microwave according to directions on the packet (should only take 3-4 minutes)
Now steam your bag of veggies for 4-5 minutes
Layer your rice, veggies, and chicken into seperate individual bowls and serve!
That's it. No pots or pans dirty, super easy and super tasty. You wouldn't even know this is done all in a microwave in less than 15 minutes! Believe me when I say I am not one who cooks everything in the microwave but sometimes you just want something that's easy, really tasty, filling and fast. This is perfect for a Monday night :)
