Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 large chicken breasts, boneless and skinless
  • 1 cup cooked jasmine rice
  • 1 cup broccoli florets
  • 1 red bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 small red onion, sliced
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/3 cup hot honey (store-bought or homemade)
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • Fresh cilantro, for garnish
  • Sesame seeds, for garnish
  • Lime wedges, for serving

Instructions

  1. Marinate the chicken. In a small bowl, mix together the hot honey, soy sauce, and apple cider vinegar. Place the chicken breasts in a zip-lock bag or a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Seal or cover and let marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, preferably up to 2 hours.
  2. Prep the vegetables by rinsing the broccoli florets and slicing the red bell pepper and red onion into thin strips. Set aside.
  3. Cook the jasmine rice according to the package instructions. Once cooked, set aside and keep warm.
  4. Sear the chicken. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade (reserve the marinade for later) and season both sides with garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Add the chicken to the hot skillet and cook for about 6-7 minutes per side, or until cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and let it rest before slicing.
  5. Sauté the vegetables in the same skillet with the remaining olive oil. Season with a pinch of salt and black pepper, and sauté until tender but crisp.
  6. Simmer the reserved marinade in a small saucepan over medium heat until it thickens slightly, about 2-3 minutes.
  7. Assemble the bowls starting with jasmine rice, topped with sautéed vegetables and sliced chicken. Drizzle with the thickened hot honey marinade.
  8. Garnish each bowl with fresh cilantro, sesame seeds, and serve with lime wedges on the side.

Notes

For best flavor, let the chicken marinate longer if possible. Use a meat thermometer to ensure chicken is cooked safely.
