Ingredients
- 500 g Chicken Breast
- 300 g Broccoli
- 300 g Basmati Rice
- 3 cloves Garlic
- 80 ml Soy Sauce
- 3 tbsp Honey
- 2 tbsp Vegetable Oil
- 1 medium Onions
- 1 tsp Sea Salt
Instructions
- 1Rinse the basmati rice thoroughly and cook according to package instructions.
- 2Cut the chicken breast into bite-sized cubes. Chop the broccoli into florets and dice the onions. Mince the garlic.
- 3In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, honey, and minced garlic to create the sauce.
- 4Heat the vegetable oil in a wok or skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breast and season with a pinch of sea salt. Stir-fry for 5-6 minutes until golden and cooked through. Remove chicken breast from the pan and set aside.
- 5In the same pan, add the onions and broccoli. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until the broccoli is bright green and tender-crisp. You can add a splash of water to help steam them if needed.
- 6Add the cooked chicken breast back into the pan with the vegetables. Pour the sauce mixture over everything.
- 7Toss everything together and let it bubble for 1-2 minutes until the sauce thickens and coats the chicken breast and broccoli.
- 8Serve immediately over a bed of fluffy basmati rice.
Chef's Tips
- •For extra spice, add red pepper flakes to the sauce.
- •Don't overcook the broccoli; it should still have a snap to it.
- •If the sauce is too thin, let it bubble a bit longer to reduce.
