Baked Teriyaki Chicken Casserole
I finally got my son to expand his meal selection beyond chicken fingers, corn dogs and pizza. So, basically, he was living off of fair food for dinner…minus the funnel cake. Getting him to try new things is such a tiresome task that I usually just give up and give him plain baked chicken breast because he thinks it’s like filet mignon. It’s not.
And, in an effort to no longer be a short order cook in my own kitchen, I’m TRYING to find things that are easy to make and he will actually eat. Even if it means, cutting off the outside of the chicken to make sure there are chicken pieces without any of the sauce/breading/grill marks on it.
This chicken casserole recipe is it. He will eat the whole thing….rice include. This is, by far, the BEST Baked Teriyaki Chicken Casserole recipe ever simply because you don’t have to cook anything in advance to get this in the oven. I tested this chicken casserole with rice multiple ways and the final result is simply the easiest way to get dinner on the table all in one pot.

What is Chicken Teriyaki made of?
For this easy Baked Teriyaki Chicken Casserole recipe, I used my homemade teriyaki sauce. This is the same teriyaki sauce I used for all my chicken teriyaki recipes.
Chicken Teriyaki is basically basted or cooked in teriyaki sauce, which is made of soy sauce, sake, sugar, ginger and, sometimes, garlic. I like to add a bit of cornstarch for thickening, if necessary.
Teriyaki chicken is, actually, a Japanese cooking technique in which food is broiled or glazed with a teriyaki sauce.

How do you make Baked Teriyaki Chicken Casserole?
Making this Teriyaki Chicken and Rice Casserole is so easy to do, simply follow these instructions for one pot chicken dinner perfection:
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
- Coat a baking dish with cooking spray and stir together the water, rice, pineapple and vegetables.
- Top the rice mixture with the chicken breasts and pour the teriyaki sauce over the chicken.
- Bake the casserole for 30-40 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and the rice has absorbed the liquid.
- Transfer the chicken to a platter and rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
- Toss the rice and veggies with a fork to fluff. Serve the chicken with the rice.

You can even make this Teriyaki Chicken in the slow cooker or Crock Pot. Just stir the ingredients in the bottom of your slow cooker and top with the chicken. Pour the teriyaki sauce over the chicken and cover. Cook on high for 5-6 hours.
To amp up the flavor just a bit more, I like to sprinkle my Teriyaki Chicken with toasted sesame seeds and chopped cilantro!
What I love most about this Teriyaki Chicken Casserole is that it’s a complete dinner all in one pot. A one pot chicken dinner, if you will. The veggies, rice and protein is all cooked together so you’re not left with a pile of dishes when dinner is done. There’s nothing I hate more than a huge pile of dishes.

Great, easy recipe. I bulked up the veg (since I’m dutifully trying to eat more of them). The flavor of the veg was wonderful and the breasts were nicely cooked (not overdone, which I was afraid of). It’s going into my regular meal rotation. Thanks for the great recipe!
You very welcome, I’m glad you liked it!
