Ingredients
Scale
1 lb ground chicken
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp onion powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
4 cups broccoli florets
1/4 cup soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free)
2 tbsp honey (or maple syrup)
1 tbsp rice vinegar
1 tsp sesame oil
Cooked rice or cauliflower rice for serving
Instructions
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add ground chicken and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned.
Stir in garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Cook for 1 minute more until fragrant.
Add broccoli florets to the skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, until broccoli is crisp-tender, about 5-7 minutes.
In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, and sesame oil.
Pour the sauce over the chicken and broccoli mixture. Stir to coat and cook for 1-2 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.
Serve the ground chicken and broccoli mixture over cooked rice or cauliflower rice.
Notes
For meal prep, divide the bowls into airtight containers and store in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Reheat in the microwave or on the stovetop.
Swap chicken for ground turkey or tofu for a different protein.
Add other vegetables like bell peppers, carrots, or snap peas.
