Ingredients
- ¼ cup water
- 3 tablespoons honey
- ¾ teaspoon black pepper, plus more to taste
- Kosher or fine sea salt
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose gluten-free flour
- 1½ teaspoons BareOrganics Turmeric Root Powder
- 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1 tablespoon coconut or avocado oil
- 12 ounces green beans, trimmed and thinly sliced on an angle

Directions
- In a small bowl or measuring cup, mix ¼ cup water with the honey, pepper, and ½ teaspoon salt. Set aside.
- In a medium bowl, stir together the flour, turmeric, and 1 teaspoon salt. Add the chicken and toss to coat.
- Heat the oil in a 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium-high. Add the chicken and cook until golden brown and fragrant, about 2–3 minutes per side.
- Add the green beans, season lightly with salt, and cook until crisp-tender, about 1–2 minutes.
- Pour in the honey mixture and cook, stirring, until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce thickens, 2–3 minutes.
