Teriyaki Chicken & Coconut Rice Recipe: Simple Dinner

I'm obsessed with these two menu for dinner lately. It's so easy to make and I never get sick of the taste so I can eat over and over again.

Teriyaki Chicken is always good but it could be a little bit boring as itself (or not!) so I made this amazingly flavorful coconut rice to have with it. It tastes really creamy but not too heavy (if you are not a fan of greasy texture you can always use low-fat coconut cream as well)! It goes perfect with Teriyaki chicken ;)
