Ingredients Needed:

boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into small cubes (1.5 lbs)

honey (3 tablespoons)

low-sodium soy sauce (3 tablespoons)

garlic, minced (3 cloves)

red pepper flakes, optional (1/4 teaspoon)

brown or white rice, for serving, optional

green onions, sliced, for serving, optional

sesame seeds, for serving, optional

peanuts, chopped, for serving, optional

lime wedges, for serving, optional

Pantry staples: salt, pepper, olive oil

Tips:

Thicken the Sauce - Whisk 1 to 3 teaspoons of cornstarch with 1 tablespoon of water and stir it into the pan during the final 2 minutes of cooking. Doubling the sauce is also a great option if your family loves extra for drizzling.

Serving Ideas - Pair with steamed rice and a fresh vegetable for a complete dinner, or serve over quinoa, cauliflower rice, or thin noodles.

Storage and Reheating - Keep leftovers with their sauce in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Reheat gently in a skillet on the stove or in the microwave until thoroughly warmed.
