Preparation

Step 1


Heat olive oil in a medium or large skillet. Add the vegan chicken and sauté for 1 minute. Add the teriyaki sauce and cook over medium-high heat, stirring often, until crisp. Transfer to a bowl.


Step 2


In the same skillet, add more olive oil if needed. Add the garlic, red onion, shallots, and green onions and sauté for 3–5 minutes. Add about 1 tablespoon soy sauce.


Step 3


Add the carrots, bell pepper, and broccoli. Sauté for another 5 minutes, adding more soy sauce if needed.


Step 4


Add the cooked rice, teriyaki chicken, pineapple, sesame oil, chili garlic sauce, and remaining soy sauce. Toss well and cook for 5–10 minutes.


Step 5


Adjust the seasoning and serve with green onions, Thai basil, sesame seeds, and extra chili sauce or sriracha if desired.
