Description

Quick 30-minute dinner pairing juicy chili ginger chicken breast with crispy Brussels sprouts.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 12 oz brussels sprouts (stemmed and halved)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt (for brussels sprouts)
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 lb boneless skinless chicken breast (diced into uniform pieces)
  • 1 tablespoon chili oil (or substitute olive oil with crushed red pepper)
  • 2 teaspoons ground ginger
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt (for chicken)
  • 1/4 cup sweet chili sauce (plus more for serving)

Instructions

  1. Toss brussels sprouts in olive oil, salt, and pepper until evenly coated. Add to air fryer basket and cook at 400°F for 10 minutes.
  2. While brussels sprouts cook, coat diced chicken in chili oil. Add ground ginger, garlic powder, chili powder, and salt. Stir to fully coat all pieces.
  3. After brussels sprouts have cooked 10 minutes, add seasoned chicken to basket and stir everything together to combine.
  4. Air fry additional 10-12 minutes at 400°F until chicken reaches internal temperature of 160-165°F. Stir halfway through cooking time.
  5. Add 1/4 cup sweet chili sauce and stir to coat. Air fry or broil additional 1-2 minutes to caramelize sauce into a sticky glaze.
  6. Serve with rice, toasted sesame seeds, lime wedges, and additional sweet chili sauce if desired.
