🥣 Ingredients (for 2 servings)

Chicken:

  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

  • 2 tbsp honey

  • 1 tbsp soy sauce

  • 1 tsp minced garlic

  • 1 tsp olive oil (or cooking oil)

  • Chopped green onions or parsley for garnish

Vegetables:

  • A handful of fresh lettuce leaves


🔪 Instructions

1. Marinate the Chicken

  • In a bowl, mix honey, soy sauce, garlic, olive oil, salt, and pepper.

  • Coat the chicken breasts in the mixture and marinate for at least 20 minutes (or refrigerate for 1–2 hours for deeper flavor).

2. Cook the Chicken

  • Heat a skillet over medium heat.

  • Cook the chicken breasts for about 5–7 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through.

  • Let rest for a few minutes, then slice into bite-sized pieces.

3. Prepare Rice and Veggies

  • Cook the brown rice (or reheat if pre-cooked).

  • Wash and slice the cucumber and lettuce.

4. Assemble the Bowl

  • In a bowl or plate, arrange the brown rice, sliced chicken, lettuce, and cucumbers.

  • Sprinkle with green onions or parsley for a fresh touch.


Tips

  • Drizzle leftover marinade (if cooked properly) over the rice for extra flavor.

  • Add boiled eggs or avocado for a heartier meal.

  • Swap brown rice with quinoa or white rice as you prefer.
