Sweet and Spicy Sticky Chicken and Rice Bowls
HOLY HOT CHICKEN! This is probably my all time favorite chicken I have made thus far! The sweet and spicy combo is AMAZING and I will definitely be having this on repeat!
I absolutely LOVE pepper jelly’s whether they are habanero jelly or a fruit pepper jelly…they are superb. I love pouring the jelly over a block of cream cheese on a charcuterie board. But let me tell you friends, the jelly in a sauce for meat is TO DIE FOR! Try it and let me know how you like it!

Equipment
- 1 Air Fryer

- 2 Medium Glass Bowls
- 1 Collander
- 4 Glass Lunch Containers
Ingredients
- 1-1/2 lbs Chicken Breast
- 4 cups Jasmine Rice
- 4 cups Broccoli
Chicken Seasoning
- 1-1/4 tsp Spiceology Hb Smoky Honey Habanero Seasoning
- 2 tsp Black Pepper
- 2 tsp Onion Powder

- 1 tbsp Tamari Soy Sauce
- 1/2 tbsp Apple Cider Vinegar
- 1/2 tbsp Corn Starch
Instructions
- Cut your chicken into bite size pieces, put into a bowl, mix in seasoning really well and place into fridge for 30 minutes.
- Once your chicken is marinaded, start your rice cooker.
- Air fry your chicken at 400 for 15 minutes, shaking a few times during cooking. You will want to cook into two batches so the chicken pieces are not touching.
- Once your first batch of chicken is cooked, dump into a clean bowl.
- Once you have placed your 2nd batch of chicken into air fryer, add your sauce ingredients minus corn starch to a small pan on the stove.
- Mix your corn starch with a very small amount of water and mix.
- Once your sauce comes to a boil, whisk in your corn starch/water mix then turn down to a simmer. Whisk a few times while your chicken keeps cooking. The sauce will thicken.
- Boil water for your broccoli. Once boiling, add to the water for only a quick minute then drain.
- Once your rice is done, pour the sauce over top of your cooked chicken and mix all up.
- Assemble your bowls!
