30-Minute Easy Sheet Pan Teriyaki Chicken and Vegetables Recipe

When you’re wondering what kind of easy chicken dinner with veggies to throw together on busy weeknights, this is the one!

  • I love sheet pan dinners because everything cooks on one pan, making cleanup a total breeze.
  • Although you could make your own homemade teriyaki sauce, this teriyaki chicken recipe takes advantage of good ‘ole store bought teriyaki sauce. Ain’t no shame in that!
  • The chicken is tender and juicy, while the veggies are crisp-tender, and everything is coated with teriyaki sauce and seasoned to perfection!
  • If you’re trying to use certain veggies up that you have on hand, or avoid others because you’re family isn’t fond of them, you’re in luck because you can easily mix-and-match the veggies.
  • This is a quick chicken teriyaki dish that’s ready in 30 minutes which is music to my ears when I’ve worked a long day and want to get dinner on the table quickly and with minimal effort!

Ingredients in Chicken Teriyaki with Vegetables

  • Veggies – I used red bell peppers, yellow onions, broccoli florets, and snow peas (peapods). You can also consider using orange/yellow/green bell peppers, sugar snap peas, sliced carrots, mushrooms, green beans, water chestnuts, and more.
  • Chicken – I had boneless skinless chicken thighs on hand but boneless skinless chicken breasts are also fine. Thighs will likely stay a bit juicer and have a deeper flavor than breast meat will but it’s all getting doused in teriyaki sauce anyway.
  • Olive oil, ground ginger or fresh ginger, garlic powder, salt, pepper.
  • Teriyaki sauce – I recommend a thick store bought sauce (to save time and energy) like La Choy Teriyaki Sauce or Whole Foods 365 Brand Organic Teriyaki Sauce. You want a thick and sticky sauce because when the vegetables cook they will release their water and thin out the sauce.
  • Optional garnishes – Sesame seeds, or black sesame seeds, thinly sliced green onions, fresh cilantro or basil finely minced, or red pepper flakes for heat.

Note: Scroll down to the recipe card section of the post for the ingredients with amounts included and for more complete directions.

Want To Make Your Own Teriyaki Sauce?

If you want to make your own teriyaki sauce, I recommend the sauce I use in my Teriyaki Steak Tips or my Baked Teriyaki Chicken with Rice.

If you want to keep this recipe gluten-free, either make your own sauce or look for a store-bought alternative that’s GF because everything else in the recipe is naturally GF. Sauces that are made with tamari or coconut aminos rather than low sodium soy sauce are gluten-free.

How To Make Sheet Pan Chicken Teriyaki and Vegetables

  1. Preheat your oven to 400F and add the veggies to one half of a standard sized half sheet pan. Drizzle with oil, season with ginger, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
  2. To a large bowl, add 1/4 cup teriyaki sauce, add bite-sized pieces of chicken, and toss to coat. If you’re using fresh ginger, you can add it here and whisk together. Place the coated chicken on the other side of the sheet pan. Tip – weโ€™re not coating the vegetables in teriyaki sauce until the last ~5 minutes of cooking. This allows the vegetables to get a nice color without burning from the sugar that’s in teriyaki sauce.
  3. Bake for about 18-20 minutes. Add the snow peas to the pan, drizzle the remaining 1/2 cup teriyaki sauce evenly over everything on the baking sheet and stir.
  4. Return pan to the oven and bake for about 5-8 minutes more, or until sizzling.
  5. Optionally, garnish as desired and serve immediately.

BakingTip: Don’t Over Crowd

When preparing this sheet pan teriyaki chicken, it’s important to avoid overcrowding the pan with vegetables (although I am guilty as charged from time to time). When the pan is overcrowded the chicken and veggies will steam rather than roast, and wonโ€™t develop the toasty flavor weโ€™re looking for. This recipe was written to fit a standard half-sheet pan.

what to serve with sheet pan chicken teriyaki

Brown rice, jasmine rice, cauliflower rice, quinoa, or noodles are great sides here.

Storage

In the Refrigerator:ย This recipe will keep in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.

In the Freezer:ย This recipe will keep airtight in the freezer for up to 3-4 months. Note that the texture of the veggies changes during the freezing/thawing/reheating process and they’ll be much softer.

To Reheat:ย I use my microwave for quickness and ease and reheat my leftovers for about 30 seconds on high, or as needed.
