[Panera](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/thai-chicken-soup) is kicking off 2021 with its new [Teriyaki Chicken](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chicken-skin-crisps) and Broccoli Bowl.

Though teriyaki chicken may not seem all that innovative, Panera has taken the classic dish to the next level with a few tasty tweaks. First off, the dish starts with [antibiotic-free boneless, skinless chicken thighs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/salad-bowl-lineup) that are seared, marinated, and then cooked in a sous-vide bath to lock in flavor and moisture. The tasty chicken is then served with steamed broccoli tossed in a soy-sauce based teriyaki glaze, made with sugar and rice vinegar, and flavored with citrus, ginger, garlic, red chili, and sesame. All the ingredients are served over a blend of long-grain brown rice, and red and white quinoa seasoned again with freshly squeezed lime juice, extra virgin olive oil, and fresh cilantro.
