Honey Sriracha Chicken and Broccoli
Description
Honey Sriracha Chicken and Broccoli combines roasted broccoli tossed with ranch seasoning for mild tang and herbiness, and chicken breast pieces cooked in a skillet. The chicken is seasoned with salt and then simmered in a sauce made from honey, sriracha, soy sauce, and ginger paste, which thickens to a glossy coating. Roasting the broccoli at high heat until tender allows for lightly crisp edges and mellow flavor, enhanced by the ranch seasoning. The chicken is stir-fried to a tender, juicy finish with a sticky, sweet-spicy glaze.
The dish is versatile and can be served over cooked rice for a complete meal. Garnishes of sliced green onion and white sesame seeds add fresh contrast and visual appeal. The harmony of roasted vegetable texture and saucy chicken makes this a well-rounded entrée.
Modifications include using gluten-free soy sauce or coconut aminos to make the dish gluten-free. Dairy-free seasoning substitutes can replace ranch seasoning to maintain flavor.
Ingredients
- 16 oz. broccoli fresh or frozen
- 1.5 Tbsp ranch seasoning mix
- 1 lb. chicken breast boneless
- 1 Tbsp olive oil
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1 Tbsp Sriracha sauce
- 1 tsp soy sauce
- 1 tsp ginger paste
- 1 cup rice optional for serving, cooked
- green onion for serving, sliced
- white sesame seeds for serving
Instructions
Roast the Broccoli:
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper and spray generously all over with cooking spray.
- Roast for 15-20 minutes or until tender and roasted to liking. Then toss with ranch seasoning mix and salt and pepper to taste.
Cook the Chicken:
- Cut the chicken into bite-sized pieces and season both sides with 1 tsp salt (or to taste).
- Whisk together the honey, sriracha, soy sauce and ginger in a small bowl and set aside.
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken in a single layer and cook, undisturbed, for 1-2 minutes. Then stir fry the chicken and cook until it is no longer pink. When done, transfer chicken to a plate to rest.
- Add the sauce to the skillet and increase heat to high. Simmer for 2-3 minutes or until the sauce is thick and bubbly. Then remove the skillet from heat.
- Add the chicken back and toss to evenly coat.
Prepare the Bowls:
- To each bowl or container, add 1/3 cup cooked rice (if using), 1/3 of the chicken (148g) and 1/3 of the broccoli (117g).
- Garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds and enjoy!
Notes
- Use gluten-free soy sauce or coconut aminos to make this dish gluten-free.
- Replace ranch seasoning with dairy-free seasoning blends such as garlic and onion powder to make it dairy-free.
