Teriyaki Chicken Stir-Fry
Teriyaki Chicken Stir-Fry is a quick, easy and perfect last minute dinner. Very versatile as vegetables and meat can be substituted to your preference.
We love our stir-fries and it is also one of the dishes we make several times a month.
Anything goes really with a stir-fry, beef, pork, seafood, chicken and we are especially fond of this Teriyaki Chicken Stir-Fry
Stir-fries are extremely convenient as they are quick and easy to make and I normally have all the ingredients on hand.
I do prefer fresh vegetables, but always have a couple of bags of frozen vegetables in the freezer. No need to defrost the vegetables when stir-frying, cook as is from the bag.
Just about any stir-fry combination of vegetables can be used in this recipe as Teriyaki is just as versatile.
One of our favorite combinations is definitely the Oriental-Style – crunchy baby corn, snow peas (sugar snap peas) and baby carrots are the main features of this particular combo.
Another bonus when making stir-fry is that you can adjust the vegetable ingredients easily, by type as well as how many servings you need – and all this at the last minute.
When it is only my hubby and myself, I half the recipe, whereas when the kids are all home, I simply double the recipe.
Another stir-fry recipe you might enjoy is my Sweet and Sour Chicken Stir-Fry – sticky delicious and made using fresh vegetables.

Made it in my cast iron turned out great! Will definitely be making this again!
Glad to hear you enjoyed the stir-fry, Dave !
Can it also be frozen
Yes you can, Valerie. However you have to place all the cooled ingredients in a bag and vacuum-seal the bag, otherwise it will get freezer burn. (Use within 3 months)
Fast, easy & delicious. We are adding it to the regular weeknight rotation. Thank you!
If I want to double the recipe, do I double all ingredients too?
Yes, Carmen, double all the ingredients, except still start with only 2 TB Oil and add more as needed 🙂
Making this as I type and I cannot WAIT TO eat it!!! Smells SOOOOOO goooooood???? thanks for a quick, simple recipe!!!
You are most welcome, Kelly ! Enjoy your stir-fry 🙂
I need at least 2 more servings but I don't wanna mess it up
Is the teriyaki sauce thick or thin (like soy sauce)? Thank you.
Rebekah, it is a thin sauce.. the Cornflour added at the end thickens the stir-fry
I don't have a wok. Can I use a regular stovetop pan?
Yes, Haley, if you have a large enough pan it will be just fine 🙂
