Gluten Free Teriyaki Chicken Stir-fry

My kids love teriyaki chicken, but with most restaurants using teriyaki sauce that has gluten, my daughter hasn’t been able to order it out very often. So, I decided to start making it at home. Thank you Coconut Secrets for your gluten free/soy free teriyaki sauce! Now we can have a great low-carb, high protein teriyaki chicken stir-fry and everyone is happy. I have been serving this with my Pork Fried Cauliflower Rice recipe, but when the kids are needing the extra carbs in their diet, I will make them a side of rice to serve it over. You will probably want to eat 2 servings to get your fill in.

Gluten-Free Teriyaki Chicken Stir-fry

This recipe is great thanks to Coconut Secrets amazing "soy" free sauces. In particular their Teriyaki sauce in combination with their coconut amino's. They are always my go to brand because I have found that their sauces and amino's are lower in sugar and carbs then other brands.
Serve with my Pork Fried Cauliflower Rice.
