Ingredients
- 1 ½ pounds boneless chicken breast cut into bite size pieces
- ½ cup chicken broth
- ½ red bell pepper chopped
- ½ cup cashews toasted
- 2 scallions chopped and divided
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 2 tablespoons liquid aminos
- 2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
- 2 tablespoons sugar-free honey
- 2 tablespoons avocado oil
- 2 teaspoons fresh ginger minced
- 1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
- ¼ teaspoon xanthan gum
Instructions
- Add the chicken broth, liquid aminos, rice vinegar, sugar-free honey and toasted sesame oil into a small mixing bowl. Whisk to combine, then set aside.
- Heat a skillet to medium and add in the avocado oil and once heated, the chicken.
- Cook for a few minutes on each side, until the chicken is almost cooked through. Remove the chicken and set it aside.
- Add in the red bell pepper and the white parts of the scallions. Sauté until tender, then add in the garlic and ginger.
- Continue cooking for another 30 seconds, making sure not to brown the garlic or it will become bitter.
- Pour in the chicken broth mixture to deglaze the pan, scraping up any brown bits of flavor.
- Sprinkle in the xanthan gum while whisking, then add the chicken back in, along with the cashews.
- Toss to coat and simmer until the sauce has thickened and the chicken is cooked through. Mix in the green parts of the scallions, toss and serve.
