Servings: 4 Servings
Calories: 250kcal
Ingredients
- 16 oz Kirkland Signature Frozen Lightly Breaded Chicken Breast Chunks*
- 1/4 cup 84g Honey
- 1/4 cup 60g Chicken Bone Broth (or water)
- 2 Tablespoons 34g Reduced Sugar Ketchup
- 1 Tablespoon 15g Red Wine Vinegar (or your choice of vinegar)
- 1 teaspoon Ground Chipotle Chili Powder
- 1/2 teaspoon Kosher Salt
Instructions
- Cook the frozen chicken in an air fryer or oven according to the instructions on its packaging. (I prefer the air fryer and cook at 375ºF for about 12 minutes.)
- While the chicken cooks, add the remaining ingredients to a skillet or saucepan over medium-low heat. (If you're baking and have a longer cook time, wait for the final 10 minutes to start on the sauce.)
- Stir everything together and cook until the sauce thickens and coats the back of a spatula or spoon, about 3-4 minutes.
- Add the cooked chicken to the reduced sauce and toss or stir to fully coat the chicken with sauce.
Notes
*Similar products include Just Bare, Perdue, Tyson, Simple Truth (Kroger), and Realgood Foods. You can also use fresh chicken breast by dicing, tossing in a bit of olive oil, salt, and pepper before air frying or baking to 165ºF internal temperature.
If you would rather use chipotle peppers in adobo, swap the chili powder for 1-2 peppers and blend all the other sauce ingredients together before reducing in a pan all the same.
