Ingredients

Scale
  • lbs chicken breasts, cut into 2-inch cubes
  • 2 tbsp sesame oil or olive oil
  • 2 tbsp low sodium soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp Sriracha sauce
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 large head broccoli, cut into florets
  • 1 cup uncooked basmati rice
  • 3¾ cups low sodium chicken broth
  • ½ tsp Italian dried herb blend
  • For sauce: 1 tbsp toasted sesame oil, 2 tbsp low sodium soy sauce, 1 tsp Sriracha, 1 clove garlic minced, 1 tbsp ginger minced, 2-3 tbsp honey
  • Optional: diced scallions, toasted sesame seeds

Instructions

  1. Marinate chicken cubes in 2 tbsp sesame oil, 2 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tbsp Sriracha, and 1 tsp garlic powder for 15-30 minutes.
  2. Heat a large deep skillet over medium-high heat. Add marinated chicken in one layer, cook 3-4 minutes per side until browned. Remove chicken if needed.
  3. In the pan center, sauté diced onion for 2 minutes, add minced garlic for 30 seconds. Add broccoli florets, uncooked rice, chicken broth, and herb blend. Mix, bring to boil, cover, simmer 20 minutes until rice is cooked, adding more liquid if needed.
  4. Stir in chicken to reheat. Meanwhile, mix honey garlic sauce ingredients. Drizzle over chicken, rice, and broccoli. Garnish with scallions and sesame seeds if desired.

Notes

For crispier chicken, sear fully before adding rice. Adjust honey for sweetness or Sriracha for heat. Use basmati rice for best texture; brown rice works for healthier option.
