  • Author: Clara Walker
  • Total Time: 30 minutes

Ingredients

– 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut into bite-sized pieces
– 2 cups broccoli florets
– 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
– 1 tablespoon sesame oil
– 3 tablespoons honey
– 2 tablespoons soy sauce
– 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
– 1 teaspoon garlic, minced
– 1 teaspoon ginger, minced
– 2 tablespoons sesame seeds
– Salt and pepper to taste
– Cooked rice or noodles, for serving
– Green onions, chopped (optional for garnish)


Instructions

Making Honey Sesame Chicken and Broccoli is a simple process, and these steps will guide you through it:

1. Prepare Ingredients: Begin by cutting the chicken into bite-sized pieces and washing the broccoli florets.
2. Mix Sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together honey, soy sauce, rice vinegar, minced garlic, and minced ginger. Set aside.
3. Heat Oil: In a large skillet or wok, heat vegetable oil and sesame oil over medium-high heat.
4. Cook Chicken: Add chicken to the skillet, season with salt and pepper, and cook until golden brown and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
5. Add Broccoli: Add the broccoli florets to the skillet and stir-fry for about 3-4 minutes, or until they are tender but still crisp.
6. Combine with Sauce: Pour the honey sauce mixture over the chicken and broccoli, stirring to coat everything evenly.
7. Simmer: Allow the mixture to cook for an additional 2-3 minutes; this helps the sauce thicken slightly.
8. Toast Sesame Seeds: In a small pan, lightly toast the sesame seeds until golden brown and fragrant.
9. Serve: Remove from heat and sprinkle toasted sesame seeds over the chicken and broccoli.
10. Plating: Serve the Honey Sesame Chicken and Broccoli over a bed of cooked rice or noodles, garnished with chopped green onions if desired.

These steps will ensure a delicious and satisfying meal that everyone will love!
