Easy Chicken Hibachi Bowl Recipe | 20-Minute Family Dinner

Chicken Hibachi Bowl with stir-fry veggies and sesame seeds

Easy Chicken Hibachi Bowl Recipe

If you are looking for a dish that is full of flavor with a less than 20 minute cook time, this chicken hibachi bowl is the recipe for you! This dish combines flavorful and juicy chicken with crunchy, yet soft veggies, and is topped with sesame seeds.

• Total prep time: 45 minutes
• Total cook time: 15-20 minutes
• Family friendly: Absolutely! We all loved it
• Pairing suggestions: Garnish with sesame seeds and serve with miso soup or spring rolls. Add to a bed of rice and top with sesame seeds and green onions.

We used minute rice and frozen veggies to make this recipe quick, but if you have more time and want to use fresh vegetables or cook your rice on the stove, you can!

Feel free to use fresh broccoli, red peppers, mushrooms, zucchini, onions, and carrots, or adjust the vegetables to your liking.

This recipe does call for marinating the chicken. I marinated the chicken for 45 minutes, but you can also make this recipe the night before and let it marinate in the fridge overnight.

This meal is family-friendly - my son and I cleared our bowls and my fiancé turned his chicken and veggies into a burrito.
