Method
Preparing the Rice
- 1
Cook the Rice
Rinse 1 cup of white rice under cold water until the water runs clear. In a pot, combine the rinsed rice with 2 cups of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 18-20 minutes until the rice is tender. Remove from heat and let it sit covered for 5 minutes.

Prepare the Vegetables

Sauté the Vegetables
In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onion, bell pepper, and broccoli. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are tender but still crisp. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Prepare the Teriyaki Sauce
In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup of soy sauce, 0.5 cups of brown sugar, 2 tablespoons of rice vinegar, minced garlic (2 cloves), and grated ginger (1 tablespoon). Cook over medium heat until the sugar dissolves.

Thicken the Sauce
In a small bowl, mix 1 tablespoon of cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of water. Add this mixture to the saucepan and stir until the sauce thickens, about 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat.

Cook the Protein of Choice
Choose between chicken, shrimp, or salmon. For chicken, cut 1 large breast into bite-sized pieces and sauté in the same skillet as the vegetables until cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. For shrimp, cook 200 grams in the skillet for about 3-4 minutes until pink. For salmon, place 1 medium fillet in the skillet skin-side down, cooking for 4-5 minutes per side until cooked through.
