Ingredients
 

  • 1 pound chicken breasts cut into bite-sized pieces
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1/4 cup Sriracha sauce
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice optional, for added zest
  • Sesame seeds for garnish
  • Green onions sliced for garnish

Instructions

Prepare the Chicken:

  • Season the chicken pieces with salt and pepper.

Cook the Chicken:

  • Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  • Add the chicken to the skillet and cook until golden brown and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the chicken and set aside.

Make the Sauce:

  • In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
  • Add the honey, Sriracha sauce, and soy sauce to the skillet. Stir to combine and bring the mixture to a simmer.
  • Let the sauce simmer for 1-2 minutes until slightly thickened.
  • If using, stir in the lime juice for an extra zing.

Combine Chicken and Sauce:

  • Return the cooked chicken to the skillet and toss to coat evenly with the sauce. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until the chicken is well coated and the sauce is sticky.

Garnish and Serve:

  • Sprinkle sesame seeds and sliced green onions over the top for garnish.
  • Serve the Honey Sriracha Chicken hot, ideally over a bed of steamed rice or with a side of steamed vegetables.
