Steps
  1. In a mixing bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Coat chicken in the marinade and let sit for 15 minutes.
  2. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and add olive oil. Cook the marinated chicken for 5-7 minutes on each side until golden brown.
  3. In a saucepan, warm honey over low heat, stir in chili flakes and apple cider vinegar. Simmer for 2-3 minutes and remove from heat.
  4. Cook your choice of grain according to package instructions. Fluff with a fork once cooked.
  5. Steam or roast broccoli, carrots, and bell peppers until tender-crisp (about 15 minutes).
  6. Assemble your bowls with grains, veggies, sliced chicken, and drizzle with hot honey glaze. Add optional toppings if desired.
