One Pan Chicken Teriyaki with Vegetables: an easy one pan meal made with tender chicken, crisp veggies and a flavorful teriyaki sauce.
I love a meal that takes little time to prep but even less time to clean up. This one pan chicken teriyaki with vegetables is just that! So easy to make, but even easier to clean up!
I love that you can make almost the entire meal using one pan. I used a sauce pan to create the teriyaki sauce but everything else was made in the sheet pan. The flavors are fresh and crisp. This is totally a meal I will make more of!

- Recipe: The Recipe Critic, Sheet Pan Teriyaki Chicken with Vegetables
Use foil or parchment paper for simpler clean up. For me it was easy just to throw it all on the pan, than right into the sink for cleaning.
This is an easy meal to use for lunches. We put rice, chicken and veggies in a tupperware and freeze. They are quick to heat up and everyone loves the flavors.
