- 1 pound (454 g) boneless skinless chicken breast or thighs cut into bite-sized pieces
- 1 head broccoli cut into florets
- 1 tablespoon (15 ml) extra virgin olive oil

- 1 tablespoon (15 ml) rice vinegar
- 1 teaspoon (5 ml) sesame oil
- 2 teaspoons (10 ml) sriracha
Instructions
- Cut the chicken and broccoli in roughly the same sized pieces and combine them together in a bowl. Toss them with the olive oil and sprinkle them with the salt, pepper, and garlic powder.

Notes
- You can leave off the marinade if you wish and just season with salt and pepper.
- Use chicken breast or thigh meat.
- If you cut the chicken into larger pieces, they may need more time to cook through.
- Chicken should reach internal temp of 165°F.
All air fryers have different wattage and may cook at different rates. You may need to adjust the time or temp for the best results.
