  • 1 tongs
  • 1 small pot for rice, optional

Ingredients
  

  • 2 large chicken breasts diced
  • ½ cup pineapple juice
  • 1 tablespoon fresh orange juice
  • 1 teaspoon zest of orange
  • 3 tablespoon Local Hive Honey Cali Citrus honey
  • ¼ cup coconut aminos
  • 1 teaspoon arrowroot powder

Instructions
 

  • Pat dry the chicken breasts and dice into smaller cubes.
