For the sauce:
- ½ cup honey
- 3 tablespoons sriracha
- 2 tablespoons rice vinegar

Cup of Yum
For the broccoli poppers:
- In a small bowl, beat together the eggs and milk. In a shallow dish, mix together the flour, bread crumbs, garlic powder, salt and basil. Working a few pieces at a time, dip the broccoli into the egg mixture, shake off the excess, then place in the breadcrumb mixture, tossing to coat. Place on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer. Once all the broccoli is on the baking sheet, mist lightly with olive oil or nonstick spray.
- Bake for about 15 to 20 minutes, until the coating is lightly golden and the broccoli is tender (but still a touch crisp). Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes. Transfer to a serving dish or platter and sprinkle with the peanuts and green onion.
For the honey-sriracha dipping sauce:
- In a small bowl, whisk together all the ingredients for the sauce. Taste and adjust with additional sriracha, if needed.
- Serve the broccoli with the sauce on the side for dipping. Store any extra sauce in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
