Description

A delightful dish featuring tender chicken in a homemade sticky sauce, served over rice and colorful vegetables.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 Chicken breasts
  • 1/4 cup Soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp Honey
  • 2 cloves Garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp Ginger, grated
  • 1 tbsp Vegetable oil
  • 2 cups Rice (jasmine or basmati)
  • 2 cups Mixed fresh vegetables (bell peppers, broccoli, carrots)
  • 2 Green onions, sliced
  • 1 tbsp Sesame seeds

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, mix soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, and grated ginger to create a marinade.
  2. Marinate the chicken breasts in the mixture for at least 30 minutes.
  3. In a pan, heat vegetable oil over medium heat and cook the marinated chicken for 6-7 minutes on each side.
  4. Remove the chicken from the pan and add mixed vegetables, stir-frying until tender.
  5. Serve the chicken over rice, topped with stir-fried veggies, green onions, and sesame seeds.

Notes

For a vegetarian option, substitute chicken with tofu, and consider using low-sodium soy sauce for a healthier choice.
