- Can I use regular rice?
- Sushi rice (short grain) is best because it's stickier, easier to eat with chopsticks. Long grain rice is too fluffy for this.
Teriyaki Chicken Poke Bowl
While Poke originally means raw fish, this modern bowl adapts the concept: bite-sized flavorful protein (chicken here), fresh crunchy veggies, and rice in one bowl. The experience is based on contrasts: warm rice vs cold toppings, soft avocado vs crunchy cucumber, salty soy vs sweet meat.

Instructions
1
✓
Rinse rice thoroughly and cook. Once done, season with a little rice vinegar and salt.
Tip: Let rice cool to lukewarm before serving. Piping hot rice will cook the raw veggies.
2
✓
Dice chicken and fry in oil. At the end, drizzle with soy sauce to caramelize.
Tip: Soy sauce sugar content burns on (glaze) giving that delicious 'teriyaki' style flavor.
3
✓
Slice veggies: cucumber, chili thinly; avocado into cubes (drizzle with lime).
4
✓
Assemble bowl: rice on bottom, toppings in sectors on top.
Tip: Visual arrangement is a key part of the poke experience.
5
✓
Sprinkle with sesame, cilantro, and drizzle with remaining soy sauce and lime juice.
Tip: Acid (lime) refreshes the dish.
