Ingredients
FOR THE CHICKEN AND VEGETABLES:
- 3 boneless chicken breasts (diced into 1 inch pieces)
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp pepper
- 2 tbsp olive oil (divided)
- 2 cups broccoli florets (diced into bite size pieces)
- 1/2 yellow bell pepper (cut into 1 inch pieces)
- 1/2 red bell pepper (cut into 1 inch pieces)
- 1/2 cup carrots (shredded)
- 1/2 tsp ground ginger
- 2 tsp minced garlic
- 2 tbsp sesame seeds
FOR THE FRY SAUCE:
- 1 tbsp cornstarch
- 1/4 cup chicken broth
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 2 tbsp honey
Instructions
- In a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch, chicken broth, soy sauce and honey. Then set aside.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil to a large skillet over medium high heat. Then add the chicken and season it with salt and pepper. Sauté the chicken for 3-5 minutes until browned and cooked through. Then remove from the skillet to a separate plate.
- Reduce the heat to medium high heat and add the rest of the olive oil to the sauce pan. Then add in the veggies (broccoli, bell peppers and carrots). Cook, stirring occasionally, and cook until tender but still crispy.
- Then stir in the ginger and garlic and cook for 1-2 minutes until the garlic is aromatic.
- Then add the chicken back to the skillet. Stir in the stir fry sauce and stir to coat the chicken and vegetables with the sauce. Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring occasionally, and let the mixture boil for 1 minute to thicken the sauce.
- Top with sesame and serve as is or over rice. Then enjoy!
Notes
- *Refrigerate the leftovers in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
