Ingredients:

  • 6 oz (170g) chicken breast, cubed into ½ inch pieces
  • 1 tbsp (15ml) honey
  • 1 tsp (5ml) soy sauce (low sodium)
  • ½ tsp (2.5ml) garlic powder
  • 1 tbsp (15ml) olive oil
  • ½ cup (85g) cooked quinoa or brown rice
  • ½ cup (75g) sugar snap peas, trimmed
  • ¼ cup (40g) baby carrots, sliced into coins
  • ½ cup (75g) seedless grapes, halved
  • ½ cup (75g) blueberries
  • 1 oz (28g) cheddar cheese cubes

Instructions:

  1. Heat the olive oil in your skillet over medium high heat. Note: The oil should shimmer but not smoke.
  2. Add the chicken cubes and sauté until they develop a mahogany colored exterior (about 5-7 minutes).
  3. Stir in the honey, soy sauce, and garlic powder.
  4. Toss the chicken for 2 minutes until the sauce glazes the meat in a sticky, glossy coat.
  5. Fluff your pre cooked quinoa or brown rice with a fork.
  6. Allow the grains to cool to room temperature. Note: This stops condensation from making the box soggy.
  7. Place the glazed chicken and grains in the largest compartment of the box.
  8. Arrange the snap peas and carrots in the medium section.
  9. Fill the remaining small gaps with grapes, blueberries, and cheese cubes.
