Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a small bowl, whisk together honey, sriracha sauce, low-sodium soy sauce, rice vinegar, and optional sesame oil until smooth. Set aside.

  3. In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil and the ground chicken. Cook for approximately 5–6 minutes until browned and cooked through, seasoning with salt and black pepper.
  4. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another 30 seconds until aromatic.
  5. Pour the prepared honey-sriracha sauce into the skillet with the chicken. Stir to coat the meat, simmer for 2–3 minutes until sauce thickens slightly.
  6. Return the sautéed broccoli to the skillet and toss everything together. Cook for an additional minute to warm through.
  7. Remove from heat and garnish with sesame seeds and sliced green onions. Serve warm over steamed rice or noodles.
