Cooking
- Add the ground chicken to the skillet, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon, and cook until no longer pink and lightly browned (about 5 to 7 minutes).
- Stir in the broccoli florets and cook for another 3 to 4 minutes until bright green and tender-crisp.
- Pour the honey-Sriracha sauce over the chicken and broccoli, stir well to coat, and cook for an additional 2 to 3 minutes until the sauce is heated through.

- Serve the dish hot on its own or over cooked rice.
Notes
Use fresh ingredients for the best flavor. For a milder dish, reduce Sriracha. Marinate chicken in the sauce for deeper flavor.
