Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 1.5 lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts
- 2 cups broccoli florets
- 1 cup jasmine rice
Honey Mustard Glaze
- 1/3 cup honey
- 1/4 cup Dijon mustard
- 2 tbsp soy sauce

Instructions
Preparation
- Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken until golden brown on both sides.
- In a small bowl, whisk together honey, Dijon mustard, soy sauce, and garlic powder until smooth.
- Transfer seared chicken to a baking dish. Brush generously with the honey mustard glaze and bake at 375°F for 20-25 minutes, or until cooked through.
Cooking the Sides
- In a saucepan, bring 2 cups of water to a boil. Add jasmine rice, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes until rice is tender.
- Place broccoli florets in a steamer basket over boiling water. Cover and steam for 5-7 minutes until tender but still bright green.
Assemble the Bowl
- Divide cooked rice among four bowls. Top with steamed broccoli and sliced chicken. Drizzle with remaining glaze.
Serving and Storing
- Serve immediately, garnished with sesame seeds or sliced almonds if desired.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the microwave before serving.
