Instructions

1. Season the chicken pieces with smoked paprika, salt, and pepper.

2. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken and cook until golden brown and fully cooked, about 6–8 minutes. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

3. In the same skillet, reduce the heat to low. Add honey, hot sauce, soy sauce, and minced garlic. Stir well until combined and slightly thickened, about 2–3 minutes.

4. Return the chicken to the skillet and toss to coat evenly in the hot honey sauce.

5. Divide the cooked grains into serving bowls.

6. Top each bowl with the glazed chicken, steamed broccoli, and roasted sweet potatoes.

7. Drizzle any remaining sauce over the bowls. Garnish with sesame seeds, fresh herbs, or a squeeze of lime juice if desired.

Notes

Use fresh, high-quality honey for the best flavor.

Add a squeeze of fresh lime juice to enhance the sweetness and spice.

Double the sauce for extra drizzle on the veggies and grains.
