Hey everybody! It’s Kelly from Life Made Sweeter! I am so excited to share some fun new recipes with all of you on The Recipe Critic! I’m a mom of two young kiddos so I’m all about family friendly recipes that don’t require too much effort!
Today, I’m bringing you a delicious dinner recipe that is super easy to throw together.
Sheet pan meals are the ones I turn to the most when I don’t have a ton of time to prep before dinner starts. They’re perfect for busy weeknights and you can toss in any veggies you like or have on hand.
This One Pan Chicken Teriyaki is one our favorites and shows up regularly at our house. My family absolutely loves anything with a sweet, tangy and savory combination and you get all of those amazing flavors with this simple homemade teriyaki glaze.
Everything cooks up in one pan while soaking in the flavor-packed sweet and sticky glaze. The chicken stays nice and tender while the broccoli and carrots roast up caramelized and crispy.

Enjoy it alone or serve it over your favorite rice or quinoa. Either way you choose, it will be so much easier and healthier than takeout!

Author: Kelly fromr Life Made Sweeter
Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
3 boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut in half lengthwise (about 1½ pounds)
1¼ cups low sodium soy sauce
4-5 tablespoons honey (depending on how sweet you like it)
4 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
1½ teaspoons sesame oil
3 garlic cloves, minced
¾ teaspoon grated or ground ginger
1 tablespoon cornstarch
3 tablespoons water
Salt and black pepper, to taste
3 cups broccoli florets (about 2 bunches)
1 cup sliced carrots
¼ cup edamame beans, optional
¼ cup fresh or canned pineapple chunks, optional
Green onions and sesame seeds for garnish, optional
Instructions
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, whisk together soy sauce, honey, vinegar, sesame oil, garlic, ginger, cornstarch and water until combined. Bring to a simmer, stirring frequently, until sauce thickens and bubbles. Remove from heat and set aside.
Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a large sheet pan with parchment paper or foil coated with cooking spray and set aside.
Season each side of the chicken with salt and black pepper then drizzle spoonfuls of glaze over the chicken coating well on both sides. Reserve half of the glaze for later.
Cook in preheated oven for 35 minutes then remove the pan. Top chicken with additional glaze and flip the chicken to the other side. Top with more glaze.
Arrange the broccoli florets, carrots, edamame and pineapples in a single layer around the chicken. Season with black pepper and drizzle with ¼ teaspoon of sesame oil and teriyaki glaze. Return to the oven and bake for another 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and juices run clear.
When finished, slice chicken into strips and drizzle with remaining sauce. Serve over rice or quinoa and garnish with green onions and sesame seeds, if desired.
Notes
Cooking time may vary slightly depending on how thick your chicken pieces are.
