Steps

In a small bowl, whisk together maple syrup, soy sauce, rice vinegar, and grated ginger to create the teriyaki sauce.
Season the chicken breast lightly with salt and pepper.
Heat olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Cook the chicken breast for 5-6 minutes on each side until fully cooked and golden brown.
Pour the teriyaki sauce over the chicken in the skillet and simmer for 2-3 minutes, turning the chicken to coat it evenly, until the sauce thickens slightly.
Meanwhile, steam the mixed vegetables until tender but still crisp (about 4-5 minutes).
Serve the teriyaki chicken sliced over cooked rice alongside the steamed vegetables.
Spoon any remaining sauce from the pan over the chicken and rice before serving.
