  1. In a pot, combine quinoa and chicken broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until quinoa is cooked, about 15 minutes.
  2. In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add cubed chicken and salt, cooking until chicken is browned and cooked through, about 10 minutes.
  3. In a bowl, mix honey, lime juice, soy sauce, garlic, and red pepper flakes to create the sauce.
  4. Once the quinoa and chicken are ready, combine them in a bowl. Top with mango, avocado, red onion, bell pepper, and cilantro. Drizzle with sauce.
  5. Garnish with lime wedges and sesame seeds if desired.
