Pan-grilled Sriracha Chicken & Beansprouts Stir-fry

This mild sweet-spicy sriracha chicken is so easy to make. Marinade for at least 30 minutes (overnight is better), pan fry and you got yourself a flavourful grilled chicken.

It’s one of our go-to meat dish because it complements a lot of vegetable sides like coleslaw, garden salad, steamed broccoli etc. We always make sure we’re eating lots of greens as we consume a higher amount of fat every meal.

Today, we paired it with beansprouts. Beansprouts are naturally sweet and crunchy and low carb (about 6 grams total carb per 100 grams). It’s also cheap and cooks real fast. When we ate it with sriracha chicken, we both agreed that it’s like we’re eating rice noodles. Sweet!

This recipe satisfied our noodle cravings. Try it & I hope you like it as much as we do.
