This skillet is built around Lawry's Teriyaki with Pineapple Juice Marinade 12 fl oz, giving the dish sweet-savory, soy-forward, glossy, and balanced. It is designed for busy cooks who want reliable timing, a clear sauce ratio, and a direct product guide for the key sauce.

Why this recipe works

The recipe keeps the sauce step simple: loosen the bottled sauce with a small amount of liquid, cook the protein first, add vegetables second, then finish with sauce at the end. This keeps the teriyaki sauce glossy instead of burnt and helps the chicken stay tender.

Cookware, heat, and timing

Use a 12-inch skillet and cook over medium-high heat. Prep takes about 13 minutes and cooking takes about 22 minutes. Keep the ingredients close to the stove before you start because the final sauce step moves quickly.

Serving ideas

Serve this with 3 cups cooked rice, sliced scallions, sesame seeds, cucumber, and a simple salad. For more ideas, browse the teriyaki sauce recipe and product category or the full recipe library.

Quick answer

For a reliable teriyaki sauce skillet, use 3 tablespoons sauce for 1 pound of boneless chicken thighs, cook in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat, and add the sauce during the final 1 to 2 minutes.

Ingredients

What you need

  • 1 pound boneless chicken thighs
  • 3 tablespoons Lawry's Teriyaki with Pineapple Juice Marinade 12 fl oz
  • 1 tablespoon water or rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon neutral oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon grated ginger
  • 3 cups bok choy
  • 3 cups cooked rice or noodles
  • 2 scallions, sliced
  • 1 teaspoon toasted sesame seeds

Directions

How to make it

  1. Minute 0 to 5: Pat the chicken dry, cut it into bite-size pieces, and set out the 12-inch skillet.
  2. Minute 5 to 8: Whisk Lawry's Teriyaki with Pineapple Juice Marinade 12 fl oz with 1 tablespoon water or rice vinegar, garlic, and ginger until the sauce looks smooth and pourable.
  3. Minute 8 to 10: Warm 1 tablespoon oil in the 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat until the oil looks glossy but is not smoking.
  4. Minute 10 to 17: Cook the chicken, stirring or turning as needed, until it is 165 F.
  5. Minute 17 to 22: Add the bok choy and cook 3 to 5 minutes, stirring often, until the vegetables are bright and tender-crisp.
  6. Minute 22 to 35: Pour in the sauce mixture and simmer 1 to 2 minutes until glossy, then finish in a hot skillet with scallions and sesame seeds.

Tips

Make it yours

  • Cookware: use a 12-inch skillet so the food has enough room to brown instead of steam.
  • Heat: keep the pan at medium-high heat; lower it if the sauce starts to darken before the food is cooked.
  • Flavor adjustment: add 1 teaspoon extra sauce at the end for stronger flavor, or add water 1 tablespoon at a time if it tastes too salty or thick.
  • Shopping note: use the Amazon product link on the sauce guide to confirm current price, delivery speed, and availability.
