Ingredients

Main Ingredients

4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts Cut them into smaller pieces for quicker cooking and even flavor distribution.
1/2 cup hot honey Use your favorite brand or homemade for a personal touch!
4 cloves fresh garlic, minced Fresh garlic elevates the dish—feel free to add more if you love that garlicky goodness!
2 tbsp olive oil A high-quality olive oil makes all the difference in flavor and health benefits.
to taste Salt and pepper A light sprinkle goes a long way—season to your preference!
2 cups cooked rice or quinoa For extra flavor, try cooking them in vegetable broth instead of water.
2 cups mixed vegetables (bell peppers, broccoli, snap peas) Use whatever you have on hand—frozen veggies work beautifully here too!
1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce Low-sodium helps manage salt levels without sacrificing flavor.
2 tbsp fresh lime juice Fresh lime brightens up the dish—don’t skip it!

Method

Preparation

Gather your ingredients and chop vegetables.
Pat chicken dry, season with salt and pepper.

Cooking

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat; sear chicken for 5-6 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through.
In a small bowl, mix hot honey with soy sauce and lime juice; add to the pan.
Toss in vegetables during the last few minutes of cooking until tender yet crisp.

Serving

Serve chicken over rice or quinoa and drizzle with extra sauce.

Notes

You can prep everything a day in advance; just store the chicken and veggies, separated, in the fridge. Leftovers can be reinvented in a wrap or frozen for later meals. For the best reheating results, warm in a skillet.
