Pro Tips For The Best Chicken Teriyaki Bowls

Here are some pro tips to make the best air fryer teriyaki chicken bowls:

  • Marinate the chicken pieces: For the best flavor, marinate the chicken in the teriyaki sauce for at least 30 minutes before cooking. This will help the chicken absorb the sauce’s flavors and become more tender.
  • Cook the chicken in batches: To ensure it cooks evenly, cook it in batches if needed. Overcrowding the air fryer basket can lead to uneven cooking and a soggy texture.
  • Add Vegetables: Add some vegetables, such as broccoli, cauliflower, green beans, or Brussels Sprouts.
  • Sauce: You can also use store-bought teriyaki sauce for an easy recipe for meal prep.
  • Serve immediately: Serve the teriyaki chicken bowls immediately after cooking to enjoy the crispy texture of the chicken and vegetables. If you need to reheat them, do so in the air fryer to help them maintain their texture.
  • Soy Sauce: For a gluten-free recipe, use gluten-free or low-sodium soy sauce.

Following these pro tips, you can make the best air fryer teriyaki chicken bowls full of flavor, texture, and nutrients.
