Sriracha Garlic Chicken

Ingredients

  • Nonstick aluminum foil
  • 2 lemons, for juice
  • 1 ½ teaspoons garlic sriracha seasoning, divided
  • 1 tablespoon garlic blend paste
  • Large zip-top bag
  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1 lb)
  • 1 small red onion, thinly sliced
  • ¼ bunch fresh cilantro, coarsely chopped
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 cup matchstick carrots

Steps

    1. Preheat oven to 450°F. Line baking sheet with foil. Squeeze lemons for juice (3 tablespoons). Combine 1 teaspoon sriracha seasoning, garlic paste, and 1 tablespoon lemon juice in zip-top bag; add chicken (wash hands). Knead bag to coat chicken; let stand 15 minutes (or up to 1 hour) to marinate. Slice onion; chop cilantro (¼ cup).
    2. Whisk in a medium bowl: remaining 2 tablespoons lemon juice and honey until blended. Add onions and carrots; toss to coat. Let stand 15 minutes to marinate, stirring occasionally, or until carrots are tender.
    3. Place chicken on baking sheet (discard marinade); bake 15–18 minutes and until chicken is 165°F. Let stand 5 minutes before slicing. Toss cilantro and remaining ½ teaspoon sriracha seasoning into carrot mixture. Top chicken with carrot mixture. Serve.

Corn and Peach Rice Quinoa Blend

Ingredients

  • 2 (3-oz) pouches multi-grain rice/quinoa medley
  • 1 lemon, for zest/juice
  • 1 cup frozen corn kernels
  • 1 cup frozen peach slices
  • ¼ cup slivered almonds
  • ¼ cup presliced green onions
  • 2 tablespoons basil pesto

Steps

    1. Cook rice following package instructions. Zest lemon (1 teaspoon); squeeze for juice (2 tablespoons).
    2. Place corn and peaches in microwave-safe bowl; microwave on HIGH for 2–3 minutes or until thawed.
    3. Stir rice into corn and peaches. Stir in remaining ingredients until blended. Serve.
    Note: Use fresh peaches, if available, instead of frozen.

Serving Suggestions

  • Complete your meal with fresh salad blend and fresh fruit parfaits for dessert.
  • Marinating with acid (like lemon juice) will penetrate proteins faster than dry seasoning blends alone. We do not suggest marinating the chicken breast overnight in this recipe.
