Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 1 cup BBQ sauce
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce

  • 1 cup carrots, shredded
  • 1/4 cup green onions, chopped

  1. In a bowl, mix BBQ sauce, honey, and soy sauce. Add chicken pieces and marinate for 30 minutes.
  2. Cook rice according to package instructions and set aside.
  3. Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add marinated chicken and cook for 6-8 minutes until cooked through.
