Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound chicken breasts
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 tablespoon sriracha sauce
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon ginger, grated
  • 2 green onions, sliced (for garnish)
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Chicken: Cut the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces, ensuring they cook evenly and absorb all the flavors of the marinade.
  2. Create the Marinade: In a bowl, mix together the soy sauce, honey, sriracha sauce, minced garlic, and grated ginger.
  3. Marinate the Chicken: Add the chicken pieces to the marinade, ensuring they’re all well-coated. Let this sit for at least 30 minutes.
  4. Heat the Pan: Heat a splash of oil in a pan over medium heat.
  5. Cook the Chicken: Once the oil is hot, add the marinated chicken to the pan. Cook until golden and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
  6. Garnish and Serve: Remove from heat. Garnish with sliced green onions and a sprinkle of sesame seeds. Serve with rice or veggies.

Notes

Let the chicken marinate longer for enhanced flavors. Adjust spice level based on preference.
