Preheat the oven to 425ºF and line a large sheet pan with parchment paper.
Place the chopped chicken in a bowl and season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with the flour and stir to coat.
In a bowl, whisk the eggs and oil until combined. To a shallow plate, add the breadcrumbs.
Dip the chicken pieces into the beaten eggs, then coat with breadcrumbs and place on the prepared sheet pan. Bake the chicken for 10 minutes, or until crispy.
Meanwhile, place all the ingredients for the honey-sriracha sauce in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Drizzle the honey-sriracha sauce over the chicken and continue to bake for 6-8 minutes.
Meanwhile, chop the cucumber into bite-sized pieces, drizzle with the sesame oil, and sprinkle with sesame seeds. Divide it among 4 meal prep bowls together with the cooked rice and the lime wedges.
Once the chicken is done, allow it to cool, then add it to the meal prep bowls.
