When it comes to quick and satisfying dinners, stir-fry is hard to beat. This Grilled Teriyaki Chicken Stir-Fry takes that weeknight staple to the next level by adding a smoky depth from grilled chicken and coating everything in a glossy, homemade teriyaki sauce.
The star of the dish is the chicken, marinated in a simple mix of soy sauce, ginger, garlic, and a splash of honey or brown sugar. Let it soak up those flavors for at least 30 minutes before tossing it on the grill. The slight char from the grill adds a smoky contrast that balances perfectly with the sweetness of the sauce.
While the chicken grills, prep your vegetables. Bell peppers, broccoli, snap peas, and carrots are all excellent choices, adding crunch and color. A quick stir-fry in a hot pan ensures they stay vibrant and crisp-tender. For extra flavor, sauté the veggies with a bit of sesame oil and fresh garlic.
Once the chicken is grilled and sliced, toss it back into the pan with the veggies and pour in your teriyaki sauce. You can use store-bought sauce for ease, but making your own is simple and so much better — just a blend of soy sauce, mirin or rice vinegar, honey or brown sugar, garlic, and ginger, simmered until thickened.
Let everything bubble together for a minute or two so the sauce coats every bite. Serve it over steamed rice, noodles, or even cauliflower rice if you’re going low-carb. A sprinkle of sesame seeds and sliced green onions on top adds a fresh, nutty finish.
This dish checks all the boxes, quick, healthy, and bursting with flavor. It’s ideal for busy weeknights and easily customizable based on what’s in your fridge. Plus, the grilled chicken makes it feel a little special, without any extra fuss.
Whether you’re cooking for your family or meal prepping for the week, this Grilled Teriyaki Chicken Stir-Fry brings bold flavor to the table in under 30 minutes.

Ingredients
- 1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts
- 1/4 cup teriyaki sauce
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tbsp honey
- 1 tsp garlic minced
- 1 tsp ginger minced
- 1 tbsp vegetable oil
- 1 bell pepper thinly sliced
- 1 red onion thinly sliced
- 1 cup broccoli florets
- 1 carrot grated
- 1/2 cup snap peas
- 2 Green onions chopped
Instructions
- Preheat grill to medium-high heat.
- In a small bowl, whisk together teriyaki sauce, soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, and minced ginger.
- Place chicken breasts in a large zip-top bag and pour half of the marinade over the chicken. Seal the bag and let the chicken marinate for 10-15 minutes.

- Meanwhile, heat vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add bell pepper, red onion, broccoli, carrot, and snap peas. Cook, stirring frequently, until vegetables are tender-crisp, about 5-6 minutes.
- Add sliced grilled chicken and remaining marinade to the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes, until heated through and coated in sauce.
- Serve the stir-fry over cooked rice and sprinkle with chopped green onions.
- Enjoy!
Yummy! The snap peas were a nice touch. Thank you for sharing!
Simple and quick recipe! Love it! Great for a busy weeknight meal. 🌟
Really good but I added some pineapple for sweetness. It really elevated the dish!
Loved it! My kids ate all their veggies for once. Thanks for sharing!
Might be good for some people, but chicken always drys out on me. Tried this but it was dry like the sahara. 2/5
I think if you avoid overcooking the chicken it won’t dry out. Maybe try lower heat next time? 4/5
Honestly, I don’t trust the chicken grilling methods. Sometimes it’s just better to bake it in the oven, less chance of desert chicken! 3/5
This recipe is hard! I don’t understand how to grill chicken. What’s the difference between teriyaki and soy sauce?
Eh. Not my cup of tea. Chicken was too chewy for me. Maybe I overcooked it?
Is teriyaki sauce and soy sauce the same thing? I’m confused. Can I just use one?
Teriyaki sauce has soy sauce in it, but they’re not exactly the same. It’s sweeter and thicker. Use both for the best flavor!
Yum!! I added some sesame seeds and it was a hit! Definitely making this again.
Sesame seeds? That’s a cool idea! I should try that next time. Thanks for the tip!
Grilled chicken stir fry? Sounds fancy but really easy. Great for weeknights!
Sounds kinda fancy, but can I just use any sauce? Like, what if I don’t have teriyaki?
This sounds delicious! I’ll definitely try it this week. Thanks for sharing!
Grilled chicken and veggies? Sounds like a diet food! Not my style. Where’s the cheese? 1 star.
You can always add cheese yourself! Cheese makes everything better. 😄
I dont like ginger so I didn’t put any and used peanut butter instead. It still tasted good, I guess!
This recipe is amazing! The teriyaki sauce gives it such a great flavor. Definitely a keeper!
I dunno… the sauce seems too sweet for my taste. I might try it without honey next time.
I tried this recipe last night and it was so good! My family loved it, too! Thanks for sharing!
This recipe is fantastic! The chicken was so juicy and full of flavor. My whole family loved it! 5 stars!
Easy to make but I used way too much garlic 😅. Gonna try it again with less!
Garlic can definitely overpower things! Maybe try just a pinch next time. 😄
I thought the marinade was too sweet. Next time, I’ll reduce the honey. Still good though.
Tastes great but doesn’t look as pretty as the pic. It was still a hit at the family gathering.
It’s OK, but the chicken was kinda dry. I think I overcooked it.
I was skeptical at first, but this stir-fry turned out really good. Will make again, but with less honey next time.
I thought the cook time was way too long for the chicken. Mine ended up dry. Maybe I did it wrong?
This recipe is fantastic! I made it for dinner and my family loved it. The flavors were spot on. Will definitely make again!
I’m so glad you enjoyed it! It’s one of my favorites too. The marinade really makes a difference!
IDK, my chicken was a bit dry. Maybe I cooked it too long? Not sure I’d make it again… but glad you liked it.
