Teriyaki Chicken Rice Bowls

So like, I totally LOVE the Cactus Club and everytime I go I always get the same thing....


Teriyaki Chicken Rice Bowl...mmmmm HEAVEN! I have tried a few other things but this is by far my fave on their menu!


Tonight I decided to try and recreate this tasty dish. It turned out well but I think would have been extra super if I would have had some kind of chopped almond or cashew to throw on top....


So here's my version of it ( I don't measure everything and I have to make plenty so Dean has some for lunch the next day):

• 1-2 LB or so chopped chicken fillets
  (you could use grilled chicken boobs, pork, beef or shrimp too)
  
• 1 clove Garlic pressed or chopped


• 1 Tbsp soy sauce
  
• 1-2 cups carrots cut into matchsticks (I use peeled baby carrots to make life easier)


• 1 red pepper diced


• 2 green onions sliced on diagonal
  
• 1-2 cups red cabbage chopped small
• 1 head of broccoli


• 1 tsp veg. oil


• 1/2 cup thick Teriyaki Sauce ( I use Kikkoman Teriyaki baste/glaze)
  
  
  
  1 tbsp each finely chopped cilantro and green part only of green onion for topping.
  
  
  Chopped nuts would be delicious too!
  
  
  
  1 1/2 Cup rice
  
  
  2 1/2 cup water
  
  
  Spicy Yogurt Sauce:
  
  
  1 1/2 cup plain yogurt
  
  
  half a package of ranch dressing mix (Hidden Valley is the SHIZ)
  
  
  1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
  
  
  So....First you start by making the yogurt sauce....Mix all that tasterific stuff together
  in a bowl cover and fridg-a-rate for at least one hour...
  
  Go ahead I'll wait........doo da doo la la ladee dahhh....
  
  Done?
  
  Start your rice....I cook rice as follows:
  
  Put rice and water in a large pot, bring to a boil, cover, lower heat to medium, DON'T TOUCH for 15 mins. Remove from heat and leave covered for 10 more minutes.
  
  
  Ok next stirfry your chicken in about a tsp or so of oil, cook until it's not all salmonella-ish. Toss in your garlic and soy sauce cook for about 3 mins or so. Set aside your chicken in a bowl or somethin'. Using the same wok or whatever, stirfry all your veggies in another tsp oil on high heat until they are crunchy but soft ... ya know?
  
  
  Remember the chicken? grab that and throw it in with the veggies, toss with Teriyaki sauce. Cook on low heat and stir around.
  
  
  When the rice is done stir in one cup of Yogurt Sauce.
  
  
  Use reserved Yogurt Sauce, cilantro and green onions (and nuts) to put on top after plating.
  
  
  DEEERICIOUS!
