# What You’ll Need:

02 - 2 small heads broccoli, chopped into florets
03 - 3 large chicken breasts

→ Chicken Seasoning

04 - 2 tbsp olive oil
05 - 1 tsp salt
06 - 1/2 tsp pepper
07 - 1 tsp chili powder
08 - 1 tsp smoked paprika
09 - 1 tsp onion powder
10 - 1 tsp oregano

→ Sticky Sauce

11 - 1/2 cup soy sauce
12 - 1/2 cup honey
13 - 1/4 cup rice vinegar
14 - 3 cloves garlic, minced
15 - 2 tbsp sriracha
16 - 2 tsp sesame oil
17 - 1 tsp ground ginger
18 - 2 tsp arrowroot powder mixed with 2 tbsp water (cornstarch can be substituted)

→ Spicy Mayo

19 - 1/2 cup mayonnaise
20 - 1 tbsp sriracha
21 - 2-3 tbsp water

→ Garnish

22 - Sesame seeds for topping

# Steps to Prepare:

01 - Cook the rice according to package instructions until fluffy and tender. Set aside.
02 - Chop broccoli into small, even-sized florets and set aside.
03 - Slice chicken breasts into uniform strips. Season evenly with salt, pepper, smoked paprika, chili powder, onion powder, and oregano.
04 - Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add seasoned chicken strips and cook until golden brown and fully cooked through, about 6-8 minutes.
05 - Steam or sauté the broccoli florets until tender-crisp, either in the same pan after removing chicken or in a separate pan.
06 - In a bowl, whisk together soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, minced garlic, sriracha, sesame oil, ground ginger, and arrowroot slurry until well combined.
07 - Pour the sticky sauce into the skillet with the cooked chicken. Simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens and coats the chicken pieces, about 3-5 minutes.
08 - In a small bowl, stir together mayonnaise, sriracha, and water until smooth and pourable. Adjust consistency with additional water if needed.
09 - Divide the cooked rice among serving bowls. Top with glazed chicken and broccoli. Drizzle with spicy mayo and sprinkle with sesame seeds before serving.

# Helpful Advice:

01 - For meal prep, store components separately and assemble just before eating for best results.
02 - Adjust sriracha amount in both sauce and mayo according to your heat preference.
