I know this is supposed to be a happy time of the year, but for me, it's the most stressful. Don't get me wrong. I love the holidays and family time and even the hustle and bustle the season brings, but trying to get everything done usually leaves me drained. I'll be spending a lot of time in the kitchen making edible gifts for family, friends and coworkers, so the last thing I want to do this month is dedicate a lot of time and attention to complex dinner meals. For the rest of the month, I'll be pulling out a list of 20 minute or less recipes to help me get through December with my sanity in tact. Last night we made Honey Sesame Chicken, a recipe found on Golden Blossom Honey. 

 

Don't let the simplicity of this recipe fool you. While there are minimal ingredients and cook and prep time is actually less than 20 minutes, this recipe is chock full of flavor. I took it a step further and used boxed minute rice instead of messing with the rice cooker to serve the chicken over. This recipe can be modified for vegetarians as well. Just replace the chicken with your favorite meat substitute. There are a ton of great veggie strips to choose from in your grocers freezer that would work perfectly with the sauce here. You could even toss in a few frozen veggie pieces for a little more nutrition and color and still stay under the 20 minute mark. I chose to use Silver Blossom Honey in this recipe because I thought the sweet orange notes would compliment the rest of the ingredients, and I was right. It was the perfect blend of sweet with a hit of bitter from the soy sauce. We'll keep this recipe on hand for a quick Asian inspired meal year round.
