Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Honey Garlic Chicken Bowls
  1. Begin by dicing the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and set it aside in a bowl. In another mixing bowl, combine honey, soy sauce, and minced garlic, whisking until fully blended.
  2. Add the diced chicken into the honey garlic sauce, ensuring each piece is well-coated. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes.
  3. In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat until shimmering. Add the marinated chicken in a single layer and cook for about 5-7 minutes until browned and cooked through.
  4. Once the chicken is fully cooked, stir in the steamed broccoli and cook for an additional 5-7 minutes until the broccoli is tender yet crisp.
  5. Remove the skillet from heat. Spoon the chicken and broccoli mixture over a bed of rice in individual bowls. Garnish with toasted sesame seeds.
