With its hearty mix of broccoli, Brussels sprouts, carrots, red cabbage, peas, and Yakisoba noodles tossed in a delectable teriyaki sauce, our Teriyaki Meal Kit is already a satisfying dish on its own.

But everyone knows grilled chicken is the perfect companion to the sweet, savory, umami-rich flavors of teriyaki, so we went ahead and invited it to the party with this easy recipe. Toss on some crushed peanuts and green onion for the finishing touch, and you’ve got a convenient Asian-inspired dish that’s better than takeout. And probably a lot faster.

SERVINGS

Ingredients

1 Taylor Farms Teriyaki Meal Kit
2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 cup edamame, thawed if frozen
2 Tablespoons sliced green onions
2 Tablespoons crushed peanuts
Wooden skewers, soaked in water for 30 minutes

Directions

Cut the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces. Thread the chicken pieces onto the soaked wooden skewers.
Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Grill the chicken skewers on each side for 5-7 minutes, or until cooked through and no longer pink in the center. Set aside.
Follow the Taylor Farms Teriyaki Meal Kit instructions to cook the noodles and vegetables with the provided sauce.
Place the edamame in a microwave-safe dish with a splash of water. Microwave on high for 2-3 minutes, or until heated through.
Divide the cooked teriyaki veggies and noodles among serving plates. Top each serving with sliced green onions and crushed peanuts.
Arrange the grilled chicken skewers on the side of each plate. Serve steamed edamame on the side or sprinkle them over the noodles if preferred.

An Edamame of Many Talents

Have some extra edamame left over? Good, because you can do a lot more with it than simply steaming it and serving it with soy sauce (although that’s never a bad idea). Here are just a few of the dishes you can make with these delightful little soybeans:

Edamame Hummus: Swap chickpeas for edamame in your favorite hummus recipe to create a vibrant green spread that’s packed with protein and fiber. Blend cooked edamame with tahini, garlic, lemon juice, and olive oil for a delicious dip or sandwich spread.
Edamame Pesto: Give traditional pesto a nutritious twist by incorporating some edamame into the mix. Blend cooked edamame with fresh basil, Parmesan cheese, pine nuts, garlic, and olive oil for a vibrant sauce that’s perfect for tossing with pasta or spreading on sandwiches.
Edamame Guacamole: Add a pop of color and extra creaminess to your guacamole by mixing in mashed edamame! Just combine mashed avocado with cooked edamame, diced tomatoes, onions, cilantro, lime juice, and salt for a tasty dip that’s great for snacking or topping tacos.
Edamame Salad: Toss cooked and chilled edamame with your favorite salad ingredients, such as mixed greens, cherry tomatoes, cucumbers, and feta cheese. Drizzle with a zesty vinaigrette or creamy dressing for a refreshing, protein-packed salad.
