Firecracker Chicken Breast Bites

About This Recipe

Crispy baked chicken breast bites with sweet and spicy firecracker sauce served with roasted broccoli and rice.

Ingredients

• 20 oz Frozen Lightly Breaded Chicken Breast Bites
• 12 oz Broccoli Florets
• 1 Tablespoon Olive Oil
• Pinch of Salt and Pepper
• 1/3 cup 80g Buffalo Sauce
• 1/4 cup 60g Maple Syrup
• 2 Tablespoons 30g Rice Vinegar
• 1 Tablespoon 15g Soy Sauce
• 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
• 1 teaspoon Ground Ginger
• 2 cups Jasmine Rice
• 2 cups Riced Cauliflower
• 4 Green Onions (thinly sliced)
• Toasted Sesame Seeds

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 400ºF and line two quarter sheet pans with parchment paper.
2. Add the broccoli to one pan and toss with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and generously season with salt and pepper. Place the chicken on the other sheet pan.
3. Bake both pans on the middle rack for 20-25 minutes or until the broccoli is vibrant green and browning around the edges, and the chicken is crispy golden brown. (You may need to pull the broccoli out of the oven a few minutes before the chicken.)
4. In the final 10 minutes of baking, mix together the sauce ingredients and add to a pan over medium heat. Once the sauce begins to thicken and coats the back of a spatula, toss the crispy chicken in the sauce.
5. Serve the chicken and roasted broccoli over the rice blend and garnish with sliced green onion and toasted sesame seeds.
