Description

A quick and healthy Chicken Stir-Fry ready in just 30 minutes! Tender chicken, crisp veggies, and a savory Asian-inspired sauce make this the perfect weeknight dinner.


Ingredients

Scale

¼ cup chicken broth

¼ cup tamari soy sauce (or coconut aminos)

1 tablespoon dry sherry (optional)

1 tablespoon honey

1 teaspoon sesame oil

1 teaspoon rice vinegar (or apple cider vinegar)

1 tablespoon cornstarch (or arrowroot powder)

2 tablespoons avocado oil

1 pound boneless skinless chicken breast, cut into 1-inch pieces

Salt and pepper, to taste

1 red bell pepper, chopped

1 small carrot, thinly sliced

2 cups broccoli florets

1 small yellow onion, chopped

1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger

4 garlic cloves, minced

1 tablespoon sesame seeds

1 green onion, sliced


Instructions

1. In a small bowl, whisk together the chicken broth, soy sauce, dry sherry, honey, sesame oil, rice vinegar, and arrowroot powder. Set aside.

2. Heat one tablespoon of oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken in a flat layer, season with salt and pepper, and cook until lightly browned, 4–5 minutes. Remove to a plate.

3. Add the remaining oil with bell pepper, onion, carrot, and broccoli. Stir-fry for 3–4 minutes until tender-crisp.

4. Return chicken to the pan. Add ginger and garlic, stir for 30 seconds.

6. Garnish with sesame seeds and sliced green onions before serving.
