Enjoy a flavorful and healthy orange chicken bowl that's quick to prepare and perfect for meal prepping.

1 pound Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts (Swap for chicken thighs for richer flavor.)
1/4 cup Tapioca Starch (Use potato starch if needed.)
1 teaspoon Garlic Powder (Fresh minced garlic works as a great alternative.)
1 teaspoon Ginger (Infuses warmth and spice.)
to taste Salt & Pepper (Adjust to your preference.)
2 tablespoons Avocado Oil (Use olive oil as a flavorful swap.)
1/2 cup Freshly Squeezed Orange Juice (Lemon juice can be used for a different twist.)
1 teaspoon Orange Zest (Feel free to skip if not available.)
1/4 cup Honey (Maple syrup makes a vegan substitute.)
2 tablespoons Tomato Paste (Ketchup can work in a pinch.)
2 tablespoons Tamari (or Soy Sauce) (Coconut aminos work for a soy-free option.)
1 teaspoon Sesame Oil (Olive oil can be replaced if necessary.)

2 cups Cooked Jasmine Rice (Choose cauliflower rice for a low-carb alternative.)
2 tablespoons Green Onion (Regular onion can work if you don’t have green onions.)

Cut chicken into bite-sized pieces and toss with tapioca starch, garlic powder, ginger, salt, and pepper.
Heat oil in a pan over medium heat and cook chicken until golden and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
In a bowl, whisk together orange juice, orange zest, honey, tomato paste, tamari, and sesame oil.
Add vegetables to the pan and stir-fry until tender, then pour in the sauce and cook for another 2-3 minutes.
Serve the chicken and vegetables over cooked jasmine rice, garnished with chopped green onion.

For a lower sodium option, reduce soy sauce and use low-sodium broth.
