  • Total Time: 45 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs
  • 1/2 cup soy sauce or tamari for gluten-free option
  • 1/4 cup honey or brown sugar for sweetness
  • 1/4 cup rice vinegar or apple cider vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons sesame oil or vegetable oil
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch or arrowroot powder (optional, for thickening)
  • Cooked rice or cauliflower rice for serving
  • Sautéed vegetables like bell peppers, broccoli, or snap peas
  • Sesame seeds and chopped green onions for garnish

Instructions

  1. Slice the chicken into bite-sized pieces. In a large bowl, whisk together soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, sesame oil, garlic, and ginger to create the marinade. Add chicken pieces and marinate for at least 30 minutes.
  2. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the marinated chicken until browned and cooked through, about 7-10 minutes. If desired, stir in a mixture of cornstarch and water during the last few minutes to thicken the sauce. Set aside.
  3. Sauté your choice of vegetables until tender yet crisp, or steam/bake them. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
  4. Divide cooked rice or cauliflower rice into meal prep containers. Top with the cooked chicken and vegetables. Garnish with sesame seeds and chopped green onions.

Notes

  • Marinate the chicken for at least 30 minutes for enhanced flavor.
  • Use high heat when cooking the chicken for a caramelized glaze.
  • Keep vegetables crisp by sautéing briefly or steaming separately.
  • Store in airtight containers for up to 4 days in the refrigerator or freeze for up to 2 months.
  • Reheat in the microwave or on the stovetop for best results.
