Sheet Pan Chicken Teriyaki

My easy sheet pan chicken teriyaki recipe is a low-carb version, as we swap rice for roasted vegetables instead, which are coated in a deliciously tasty teriyaki sauce alongside the tender baked chicken pieces.

Low Carb Sheet Pan Chicken Teriyaki

My low-carb gluten-free sheet pan chicken teriyaki recipe is a flavorful meal in one that cooks up in a flash! I eat a mostly low-carb diet as a lifestyle choice. I’m not super strict about it these days but I prefer low carb whenever possible. Therefore, I’m always looking for more quick and easy meals to add to my arsenal, so I developed this quick and easy sheet pan chicken teriyaki.

Instead of the rice, we just load up on broccoli and cauliflower, which we bake in the oven alongside the chicken breast. You’ll notice that the sauce has some honey in it and yes teriyaki sauce is a bit carby, but most of the sauce ends up in the bottom of the sheet pan, with just a very faint coating on the dish to give it flavor. I count this as another powerful weapon in our low-carb supper arsenal! The only other ingredient is sriracha for just a touch of heat because I can’t help myself.

If you’re not eating low-carb, this is still a great one-pan teriyaki chicken with vegetables recipe for a low-fuss main dish that will be on the table in less than an hour. Plus, you have more options available to you. You can double the sauce, add in your favorite veggies (such as carrots), or serve over rice for a meal that will please the whole family.

Recipe Notes

  • Some chicken teriyaki recipes add 1/4 cup of pineapple chunks for added flavor.

  • Garnish with a sesame seed sprinkle before serving.
  • To make homemade teriyaki sauce, you’ll need low sodium soy sauce or tamari, brown sugar, fresh ginger, minced garlic, honey, sesame oil, mirin (Japanese rice wine) or rice wine vinegar, and cornstarch.

    Delicious! It may deserve 10 stars – followed recipe EXACTLY (which isn’t always my way ) and we loved it! May make additional sauce to drizzle over cooked meal and would add riced cauliflower as a side! Thank you for all your delicious recipes! Cathie

  2. This recipe looks tasty.. and a good way to use broccoli and cauliflower. I’m going to try it tonight. Thanks, Christy!

  3. Do you think this would go well with low/no carb smelly shirataki noodles? I have not used those noodles yet, but was thinking this would be a good recipe to use and try those noodles with it.

    1. Judith, what is the point of your comment? It doesn’t help anyone to know that you hate those noodles. I’m very sure no one cares.
