Quick Asian Chicken
This is one of my absolute favorite quick chicken recipes. It’s perfect to make when you’re in a rush, after a workout, for prepping, and so much more. I’ll eat it with veggies, brown rice, with a stir fry, by itself…the options are endless! For those meal preppers out there, it’s perfect because it’s quick, healthy, flavorful, and holds up well. You could even make the sauce separately and keep it in your fridge for whenever you’re ready to use it!
