Description
A delightful blend of sweet, smoky, and spicy chicken served over a bed of rice and topped with fresh vegetables.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 chicken breasts
- 1/4 cup honey
- 2 tablespoons chipotle sauce
- 2 cups cooked rice
- 1 cup mixed fresh vegetables (such as bell peppers, corn, and broccoli)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Olive oil for cooking
Instructions
- Create the Honey Chipotle Glaze: In a bowl, mix together the honey and chipotle sauce until fully combined.
- Season the Chicken: Take your chicken breasts and season them generously with salt and pepper.
- Sauté the Chicken: Heat a splash of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Once hot, carefully place the seasoned chicken breasts in the skillet. Cook them for about 6-7 minutes on each side.
- Brush on the Glaze: In the final moments of cooking, brush the honey chipotle glaze onto the chicken, allowing it to caramelize.
- Serve with Flair: Once your chicken is cooked, slice it and serve it over rice topped with fresh vegetables and any remaining glaze.
Notes
Serve with sides like cucumber salad or guacamole. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
