Ingredients
- 1 cup white rice
- 3-4 boneless skinless chicken breasts diced
- 2 tbsp vegetable oil divided
- 1 tsp garlic salt
- 1 tsp pepper
- 1 tsp red pepper flakes
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 1 red bell pepper diced
- 1/2 cup honey
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- Scallions for topping
Instructions
- Start cooking the rice so it’s done around the same time as the chicken.
- In a large bowl, combine the diced chicken with 1 tbsp oil, garlic salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes (if using).
- Heat the remaining 1 tbsp oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add the chicken and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 8 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove chicken and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add the garlic and red bell pepper. Cook for 1-2 minutes over medium heat.
- Add the honey and soy sauce and stir until a sauce forms and thickens slightly. Return the chicken to the skillet and toss to coat.
- Serve over rice and sprinkle with chopped scallions.
