Ingredients:

  • 500g boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 3 tbsp soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 1 tbsp Sriracha sauce (adjust to heat preference)
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp fresh ginger, grated
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil
  • 1 tbsp lime juice
  • 1 red chili pepper, thinly sliced (optional for extra heat)
  • Fresh cilantro, chopped (for garnish)
  • Cooked white rice, for serving

Instructions:

1. Make the Marinade

In a large bowl, whisk together soy sauce, honey, Sriracha, garlic, ginger, sesame oil, and lime juice.

2. Marinate the Chicken

Add the chicken pieces to the bowl and stir to coat evenly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes (or up to 2 hours for deeper flavor).

3. Cook the Chicken

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated chicken (reserving the extra marinade). Sauté for 5–7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and lightly golden.

4. Caramelize the Sauce

Reduce heat to medium. Pour the remaining marinade into the pan and let it simmer for about 5 minutes, or until thickened and glossy. Stir frequently to coat the chicken in the sticky glaze.

5. Add the Red Pepper

Toss in the sliced red chili and stir for an additional minute until just softened and coated in sauce.

6. Serve & Garnish

Serve the caramelized chicken over hot white rice and top with a generous sprinkle of fresh cilantro.


Recipe Notes:

  • Add steamed broccoli, snap peas, or bell peppers for a veggie boost.
  • Make it low-carb by serving over cauliflower rice or lettuce wraps.
  • Want extra heat? Add a dash more Sriracha or crushed red pepper flakes.
