Ingredients
Method
Cook the Rice
- Cook the rice according to package instructions, then fluff with a fork and set aside, keeping it warm while assembling the bowls.
Prepare the Broccoli and Chicken
- Cut the broccoli into bite-size florets and slice the chicken breasts into even strips so they cook quickly and evenly.
Season the Chicken
- In a bowl, toss the chicken with salt, pepper, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and dried oregano until all pieces are well coated.
Cook the Chicken
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned chicken and cook until golden on the outside and cooked through in the center.
Prepare the Sauce
- Transfer the cooked chicken to a plate, leaving any browned bits in the skillet. In the same pan, whisk together soy sauce, honey, garlic, ginger, and sesame oil, then bring to a gentle simmer.
Thicken the Sauce
- Stir in the cornstarch slurry and cook, stirring often, until the sauce thickens and turns glossy enough to coat the back of a spoon.
Coat the Chicken
- Add the cooked chicken back into the skillet and toss until every piece is coated in the sticky glaze. Simmer for 1–2 minutes.
Cook the Broccoli
- Meanwhile, steam or sauté the broccoli florets just until crisp-tender and bright green, then season lightly with salt.
Prepare the Optional Drizzle
- For an optional drizzle, stir together the Greek yogurt or mayonnaise with sriracha and a splash of water until smooth and pourable.
Assemble the Bowls
- Assemble the bowls by adding a scoop of rice to each, topping with sticky chicken and broccoli, then finishing with the spicy drizzle, green onions, and sesame seeds.
Notes
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. For best results, reheat in a skillet to maintain the chicken's texture.
