Ingredients

Hot Honey Chicken

  • 1 Tbsp avocado oil
  • 2 medium boneless chicken breasts
  • 1/3 cup honey
  • 1/4 cup sriracha or any type of hot sauce
  • 2 tsp minced garlic
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp pepper
  • 1/4 tsp cayenne optional
  • 1/4 tsp crushed red pepper optional

Bowls

  • 2 medium zucchini, sliced
  • 1 medium summer squash, sliced
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded carrots
  • 1 medium avocado, sliced
  • 2 cups cooked rice or quinoa
  • 1 medium lime
  • 1/2 cup healthy ranch dressing optional

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • In a skillet, cook the chicken in the oil for about 5-7 minutes on each side on the stovetop.
  • Mix the honey, sriracha, garlic, salt, pepper, cayenne, and crushed red pepper to create the sauce.
  • Set aside 2 Tbsp of the hot honey sauce.
  • Add the sliced zucchini and summer squash to the skillet and remove from heat.
  • Place the chicken on top of the squash and pour the hot honey sauce over it, coating it evenly and drizzling some on the squash as well.
  • Place the entire skillet in the oven and bake for about 20 minutes (or until the chicken is fully cooked), stirring the vegetables halfway through.
  • Remove the skillet from the oven and let cool for about 5 minutes.
  • Cut the chicken into cubes and coat evenly in the remaining 2 Tbsp of hot honey sauce.
  • Serve each bowl with cooked rice, zucchini, summer squash, shredded carrots, avocado slices, hot honey chicken, lime juice, and a drizzle of ranch!

Notes

  • These Hot Honey Chicken Bowls can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 1 week or the freezer for up to 3 months!
  • These bowls are pretty spicy, so feel free to tone down the heat by using a mild hot sauce instead of sriracha. You can also use tomato sauce if you really want mild version of this Hot Honey Chicken!
