Ingredients
  

1 lb chicken thighs, boneless and skinless

1 cup jasmine rice

2 cups chicken broth

2 tbsp soy sauce

2 tbsp honey

1 tbsp rice vinegar

1 tbsp sesame oil

2 cloves garlic, minced

1-inch piece of ginger, grated

2 green onions, chopped (for garnish)

1 cup steamed broccoli or mixed vegetables

Sesame seeds, for garnish

Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions
 

Marinate the Chicken: In a bowl, combine soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, sesame oil, minced garlic, grated ginger, salt, and pepper. Add the chicken thighs, ensuring they're well coated. Let them marinate for at least 30 minutes, preferably in the refrigerator.

    Cook the Rice: Rinse the jasmine rice under cold water until the water runs clear. In a medium pot, combine the rinsed rice and chicken broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 15 minutes, or until the liquid is absorbed. Remove from heat and let it sit covered for 5 minutes before fluffing with a fork.

      Cook the Chicken: In a large skillet over medium heat, add the marinated chicken thighs. Cook for about 5-6 minutes on each side or until they are golden brown and fully cooked (internal temperature should reach 165°F). Remove from the skillet and let rest for a few minutes before slicing.

        Assemble the Bowls: Start with a base of fluffy jasmine rice in each bowl. Top with slices of sticky chicken, followed by steamed broccoli or your choice of mixed vegetables.

          Garnish and Serve: Drizzle any remaining marinade over the top, sprinkle with chopped green onions and sesame seeds. Serve warm and enjoy your delicious Sticky Chicken Rice Bowls!
