Prep: 5 Cook: 20

  • ½cup jasmine rice
  • 4TBS sweet soy glaze
  • 10oz chopped chicken breast
  • 2scallions
  • 1thumb ginger
  • 1tsp sriracha
  • 2tsp honey
  • 6oz green beans
  • 1TBS sesame seeds
  • salt & pepper
  • cooking oil


Cook rice:

Adjust rack to top position and preheat oven to 425°F. Wash and dry produce.

In a small pot, combine rice, ¾ cup water, and a big pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce to a low simmer. Cook until rice is tender, 15-18 minutes.

Keep covered off heat until ready to serve.

Roast green beans:

While rice cooks, trim green beans if necessary. Toss on a baking sheet with a drizzle of oil, salt, and pepper.

Roast on top rack until golden-brown and tender, 12-15 minutes.

Prep & make sauce:

Meanwhile, trim and thinly slice scallions, separating whites from greens. Peel and mince ginger.

In a small bowl, combine soy glaze, honey, 2 TBS water, and Sriracha to taste.

Cook chicken:

Open package of chicken and drain off any excess liquid.

Heat a large drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add chicken in a single layer and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until browned and almost cooked through, 3- to 5-minutes.

Coat chicken:

Once chicken is browned, add scallion whites and ginger to pan. Cook until fragrant, 1 minute.

Pour in sweet soy honey sauce, cook until sauce has thickened, and chicken is coated and cooked through, 2- to 3-minutes. Turn off heat.

Finish & serve:

Fluff rice with a fork and season with salt and pepper.

Tip: For extra flavor, stir in 1 TBS butter.

Divide rice, green beans, and chicken between plates. Garnish with scallion greens and sesame seeds. Serve.
