Honey Chicken Meal Prep
Ingredients
Chicken & Seasoning
- 15 ml Peanut Oil
- 1 kg Chicken Thigh, Boneless & Skinless Diced
- 4 g Onion Powder
- 4 Garlic Cloves Grated
Honey Sauce
- 70 g Honey
- 50 g Sriracha Sauce
- 22.5 ml Apple Cider Vinegar
- 10 ml Sesame Oil
Cous Cous
- 320 ml Low Sodium Chicken Stock or Water
- 280 g Dry Cous Cous
- 2 Garlic Cloves Grated
- 1 Spring Onion (Scallion) Sliced
Stir Fried Veggies & Garnishes
- 10 ml Peanut Oil
- 4 Baby Bok Choy Chopped & Washed
- 12 g Black & White Sesame Seeds
Method
- Bring the chicken stock and garlic to a boil in a saucepan. Add the cous cous, stir to combine, then put a lid on and steam for 10 minutes until the cous cous has absorbed all the stock. Remove the lid, fluff the cous cous with a fork to separate the grains, then mix through the spring onion and check the seasoning.
- In a bowl, add the chicken thigh, onion powder, garlic, and seasoning to taste, and mix well to combine. In a separate bowl, whisk together the honey, sriracha sauce, apple cider vinegar, and sesame oil.
- Place a large pan over medium-high heat, add the peanut oil, and sear the chicken for 10 minutes. Add the honey sauce and cook for 2 minutes to reduce it down into a glaze that coats the chicken well. Stir through the sesame seeds, check the seasoning, and remove from the heat.
- Place a clean pan or wok over medium-high heat, add the peanut oil, baby bok choy, and pak choy, and stir-fry for 4-5 minutes until slightly charred and al dente. Season to taste, mix well, and remove from the heat.
- Serve in meal prep containers, evenly distributing each element between the 5 containers.
