Ingredients
Scale
- 12 oz Broccoli Florets
- 1 Tablespoon Avocado or Olive Oil
- 1 teaspoon Kosher Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black Pepper
- 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
- 1 pound Chicken Breast cut into bite size pieces
- 1 Tablespoon Chili Oil
- 2 teaspoons Ground Ginger
- 2 Tablespoons (30g) Chili Garlic Sauce plus 1 Tablespoon (21g) Honey for glazing
Instructions
- Coat the broccoli with oil and then season it evenly with salt pepper and garlic powder.
- Toss the chicken pieces in chili oil and sprinkle with ground ginger stirring until all pieces are coated well.
- If your air fryer supports multiple racks place broccoli on one rack and chicken on the other then air fry at 400ºF for about 4 to 5 minutes until chicken reaches 150ºF to 160ºF.
- Brush the chicken with the mixed chili garlic sauce and honey then continue air frying for 2 more minutes at 400ºF to caramelize the glaze and cook chicken fully to 165ºF.
- For a single basket air fryer cook broccoli alone at 400ºF for 5 to 6 minutes then set aside and cook chicken separately.
- Reheat broccoli briefly if desired then serve garnished with toasted sesame seeds alongside rice or cauliflower rice and extra sauce if preferred.
Notes
- *For the two rack air fryer I used an Instant Pot Vortex Pro The single basket air fryer cook times are with a 6
- 5-quart Ninja Foodi Cook times may vary so go by the internal temperature of your chicken
