Method

Preparation

1

Cook Chicken Teriyaki

In a pan over medium heat, cook 1 cup of diced chicken in teriyaki sauce until fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes. Stir occasionally to ensure even cooking.

2

Prepare Gyoza

In a separate pan, heat oil over medium heat. Place 6 gyoza in the pan and fry until the bottoms are golden brown, about 2-3 minutes. Add a splash of water and cover to steam for another 3-4 minutes until cooked through.

3

Cook Edamame

Boil a pot of water and add 1 cup of edamame. Cook for 5 minutes until tender. Drain and sprinkle with salt.

4

Slice California Roll

Using a sharp knife, slice the California roll into 4 equal pieces.

Assembly

5

Assemble the Bento Box

In a bento box, arrange the cooked Chicken Teriyaki, Crispy Gyoza, and Edamame. Place the sliced California roll in a separate section. Add small containers for soy sauce and sweet chili sauce for dipping.
