Hot Honey Chicken Bowl

A vibrant bowl of tender chicken glazed with hot honey, served with sautéed vegetables over a base of quinoa or rice.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 chicken breasts, skinless and boneless
  • 2 tablespoons hot honey
  • 1 cup cooked quinoa or rice
  • 1 bell pepper, diced
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1 avocado, sliced
  • Fresh cilantro, for garnish
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Lime wedges, for serving

Instructions

  1. Cook the Chicken: Season both sides of the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Let them sit for about 10 minutes. Heat a skillet over medium heat, add oil, and sear the chicken for 5-7 minutes on each side until golden brown. Drizzle hot honey over the chicken near the end to caramelize.
  2. Prepare the Quinoa or Rice: Cook according to instructions. Rinse quinoa under cold water, boil with double the amount of water, cover, and simmer until fluffy.
  3. Sauté the Vegetables: In the same skillet, add more oil if needed. Sauté bell peppers for 3-4 minutes, add cherry tomatoes, and continue for another 2-3 minutes.
  4. Assemble the Bowl: Slice the cooked chicken and start with quinoa/rice in a bowl, top with sautéed veggies and chicken, and finish with avocado.
  5. Garnish and Serve: Sprinkle with cilantro and serve with lime wedges.
