20 minutes
Serves: 4
Just Bare Lightly Breaded Chicken Strips coated in a sweet and salty honey glaze. This recipe uses coconut aminos which offer the salty and umami flavors of regular soy but without all the added sodium!

- 2 tbsp coconut aminos
- 1 medium head broccoli, cut into florets, steamed
Instructions
- Preheat the air fryer to 350°F.
