Honey-Sesame Chicken and Broccoli

BEAT THE HEAT 

A Stir Fry Dinner made stove-top-no oven heat needed.

 Honey Sesame Chicken with Broccoli

Cook's Notes: This recipe can be stir-fried in a skillet or in a wok. I used stir fry noodles at the end of the cooking time but rice is another option.  If want more "heat" amp up the Sriracha

The recipe serves 4 and was adapted from Cuisine at Home Spring 2022

Ingredients:

• 3/4 lb. chicken breasts, cut into 2-inch chunks
