Ingredients

  • 1 pound Ground Chicken
  • 1/2 Tablespoon 8g Olive Oil
  • 1/2 cup 136g Sugar Free Orange Marmalade
  • 1/4 cup 60g BBQ Sauce (I used sugar free G Hughes)
  • 2 Tablespoons 30g Chili Garlic Sauce or Sriracha
  • 1 Tablespoon 15g Soy Sauce

For the Broccoli

  • 12 oz Broccoli Florets
  • Avocado Oil Spray or about a tablespoon of oil
  • Salt and Pepper to taste

For the Rice

  • 3 cups 340g Cooked Cauliflower Rice
  • 2 cups 280g Cooked Jasmine Rice

Instructions

  • Cook the rice and prepare the broccoli. Spray the broccoli with oil or toss with oil and season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Air fry at 400ºF for about 5 minutes. OR sauté in a pan with a tablespoon of oil, season with salt and pepper, add 2-3 tablespoons of water, and cover for a few minutes until tender.
  • While the broccoli cooks, mix the marmalade, BBQ sauce, chili garlic sauce or sriracha, and soy sauce together. Set aside.
  • Brown and fully cook the ground chicken in a half tablespoon of oil. Add the sauce and cook for 3-4 minutes until the sauce evenly coats the chicken and begins to caramelize around the edges. You can add a tablespoon or two of water to deglaze the pan if needed.
  • Serve everything together and garnish with sliced scallions, toasted sesame seeds, and additional chili crisp or sriracha, if desired.
