Hot Honey Chicken

Spicy, savory & a touch of sweet! Protein packed, healthy Lunch or Dinner bowl!

RECIPE:

Hot Honey Chicken

1 pound boneless chicken breasts, halved lengthwise about 2 medium

1/3 cup hot honey

2 teaspoons minced garlic

Bowls

2 medium zucchini, sliced

1 medium summer squash, sliced

1 cup cooked quinoa

1/4 medium lime optional, for topping

Healthy Ranch Drizzle (Optional)

  • 1/4 cup plain nonfat Greek yogurt

  • 1-2 Tablespoons milk adjust to thickness

  • 1/4 teaspoon onion

  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic

  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper

  • 1/4 teaspoon dill

  • 1 teaspoon freshly chopped parsley


Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.. 

Whisk the honey & garlic to create the sauce.

Set aside 3-4 Tablespoons of the hot honey sauce.

Remove the chicken breasts from the skillet and set aside.

Slightly lower the heat, then toss the squash in the skillet for 1-2 minutes. Turn off heat.

Add the squash, then place the chicken breasts on top of the vegetables, and coat both sides of the chicken with the hot honey sauce.

Place the entire skillet in the oven and bake for about 15 minutes (or until the chicken is fully cooked), stirring the vegetables halfway through.

While it bakes, mix up the ranch dressing drizzle.

Turn the oven to high broil and broil for 3-5 minutes to brown and caramelize the sauce on the chicken.

Remove the skillet from the oven and let rest for about 5 minutes.

Cut the chicken into cubes and coat evenly in the remaining hot honey sauce.

Assemble the bowls with rice, veggies, chicken, and drizzle with any extra hot honey and ranch dressing.

Add sliced avocado and a squeeze of lime if you’d like. Enjoy!
