Description
Comfort food meets healthy eating with crispy chicken, warm hot honey glaze, and vibrant veggies.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 chicken breasts (crispy or grilled)
- 1 cup hot honey
- 2 cups cooked rice or quinoa
- 1 cup mixed vegetables (bell peppers, broccoli, carrots, etc.)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Olive oil for cooking
Instructions
- Begin by heating some olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Season your chicken breasts generously with salt and pepper before placing them in the hot skillet. Cook until golden brown and crispy on the outside, about 5-7 minutes on each side, ensuring they are cooked through and juicy.
- In a small saucepan, pour in your hot honey and place it over low heat. Stir occasionally until the honey is warmed through.
- Once your chicken breasts are cooked to perfection, remove them from the skillet. Pour the warm hot honey over the chicken, ensuring each piece is evenly coated.
- Grab your favorite bowls and start layering cooked rice or quinoa as the base, followed by the hot honey-coated chicken and mixed vegetables.
- Drizzle any remaining hot honey over the assembled bowls for an extra kick of sweetness. Serve immediately and enjoy!
Notes
For an extra crisp, dredge the chicken breasts lightly in flour before frying. Feel free to swap in your favorite vegetables for a personalized touch.
