Ingredients:

• 1 tablespoon olive oil

• 1 tablespoon sesame oil, divided

• 1.5 pounds chicken breasts, cut into 1/2-inch cubes

• 2 cups chopped broccoli florets

• Salt and pepper, to taste

• 1/3 cup low-sodium soy sauce

• 2 tablespoons honey

• 2 teaspoons sriracha (optional)

• 1/4 cup cold water

• 2 teaspoons cornstarch
  
  

Instructions:

1. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat with the olive oil and half of the sesame oil.

2. Add the chicken cubes and season with salt and pepper to taste. Sear the chicken, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes until lightly golden.

3. Add the broccoli to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 3 minutes until the broccoli is bright green and crisp-tender.

4. While the broccoli is cooking, whisk together the remaining sesame oil, soy sauce, honey, sriracha (if using), water, and cornstarch in a small bowl.

5. Reduce the heat to medium-low and pour the sauce over the chicken and broccoli. Simmer for 3 minutes, until the sauce has thickened.

6. Serve immediately with rice or cauliflower rice.
