Spicy Sriracha Chicken & Quinoa Bowl

Amazing and addicting! It made my hubby's nose run a bit but I love spicy food! You can adjust the amount of sriracha you use to your liking.


Ingredients

1 cup of dry Quinoa, cook according to package directions
Coconut Oil
Chicken breasts, cubed
1/2 cup Sriracha 
1/4 cup Honey
1 tablespoon of lime juice
Black pepper
Green onion, chopped
Fresh cilantro
Garlic powder

Directions

1. Fluff cooked quinoa with a fork & set aside
2. Melt coconut oil over in a large saucepan
3. Add chicken & cook until browned on each side, flipping a few times with tongs
4. Place the chicken in a dish lined with a paper towel to absorb the extra oil
5. Whisk together honey, lime juice & Sriracha sauce in a bowl
6. Add the chicken back to the pan along with 1/2 of the chopped green onions. Then add the sauce & simmer uncovered for about 8-10 minutes, until chicken is cooked through. Stirring often. Sauce will thicken a bit as it cooks
7. Season with pepper and garlic powder
8. Finish with a handful of fresh cilantro and green onion. Serve over quinoa
