How to Make Honey Garlic Chicken
This Honey Garlic Chicken Stir Fry is quite easy to make! Start by cooking your brown rice or use brown rice that is already cooked. You can also swap for cauliflower rice. Then, cook your chicken and put it to the side. Cook your veggies and add in your flavors including garlic, ginger and onion. Then, whisk together the honey soy sauce and pour over the veggies. Add in the chicken and simmer for a few minutes until the sauce is thickened. Serve the stir fry over the brown rice.
Life always seems to be busy with three kids and I love Spice World garlic, ginger and onion to save time cooking and chopping in the kitchen! It tastes fresh and adds so much flavor to my food. I just keep it in my fridge and use it as needed.
Stir Fry Nutrition
This stir fry is packed with nutrients! The vegetables and brown rice are full of fiber and the chicken is packed with protein making it a nutritious meal. The flavors that I added are all packed with benefits too- ginger, garlic and onion.
Ginger is excellent for digestion and such an important flavor in stir fries. I love that this one comes prechopped to save time. Garlic supports your immune system, make help lower cholesterol and blood sugar and contain prebiotic which benefits gut health. Onions can be beneficial for heart health and bone density. I love adding these three strong and delicious flavors to my stir fries for flavor as well as health benefits.
