Cooking Steps
• Adjust rack to top position and preheat oven to 425 degrees. Wash and dry produce. • In a small pot, combine rice, ¾ cup water (1½ cups for 4 servings), and a big pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce to a low simmer. Cook until rice is tender, 15-18 minutes. • Keep covered off heat until ready to serve.
• While rice cooks, trim green beans if necessary. • Toss green beans on a baking sheet with a drizzle of oil, salt, and pepper. • Roast on top rack until golden brown and tender, 12-15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, trim and thinly slice scallions, separating whites from greens. Peel and mince ginger. • In a small bowl, combine hoisin, honey, 2 TBSP water (3 TBSP for 4 servings), and Sriracha to taste.
• Pat chicken* dry with paper towels and season with salt and pepper. • Heat a large drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned, 3-5 minutes (it’ll finish cooking in the next step).
• Once chicken is browned, add scallion whites and ginger to pan. Cook until fragrant, 1 minute. • Pour in sauce; cook until sauce has thickened and chicken is coated and cooked through, 2-3 minutes more. Turn off heat.
• Fluff rice with a fork and stir in 1 TBSP butter (2 TBSP for 4 servings) until melted; season with salt and pepper. • Divide rice, green beans, and chicken between plates. Garnish with scallion greens and sesame seeds. Serve.

Reviews from our home cooks
This recipe was easy to make, delicious, and even made great leftovers! I love the honey in the chicken and the rice came out perfectly cooked according to directions. I never roasted my green beans before HelloFresh and now that's the best way I like them :)
Recipe was very tasty. I ordered 2 kits and one was missing the honey packet. Kinda of hard to make Hoisin Honey Chicken without the honey. 1/2 cup of rice is a very skimpy for 2 servings. Also thought there should be more chicken included for the price of the meal.
So tasty and simple to prepare. The hoisin flavoring is so delicious on the tender chicken pieces. The rice and green beans are a really nice compliment to this meal.
I loved that the green beans came out so crispy. I also would have never thought to have cooked with hoisin but I definitely will in the future!
This was great - I'm closer to the expected preparation time, too! I did the microwave trick for these green beans then finished them off in a pan with a little toasted sesame oil and Bragg's Aminos (tastes like soy sauce). I worried at first that there would't be enough rice, but it was just right for the portions. Very good!
Great taste and flavors. First time trying Hoisin sauce. One of my favorites and would not mind making and eating it again. Easy to follow directions as well.
While a simple dish the flavors of the Hoisin for the chicken is outstanding! There is so much depth of flavor!
This is one of my favorites so far. The sticky hoisin honey on the chicken was just *chefs kiss*
So I ate both portions of this in one sitting! It was just DELICIOUS! I cooked the rice perfect! the green beans were good and fresh. The honey chicken-AMAZING!
Really good. Thought hoisin honey would be too sweet but heat balanced it.
