Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 10 minutes
Servings: 2


Ingredients
  • ½ lb (250g) boneless, skinless chicken thigh cut into 1-inch (2.5cm) cubes (Can use breast)
  • 1 tbsp olive oil divided
  • 1 cups broccoli florets
  • ¼ yellow bell pepper (Capsicum) cut into 1-inch (2.5cm) pieces
  • ¼ red bell pepper (Capsicum) cut into 1-inch (2.5cm) pieces (I usually just use a half of one. Less colorful, but less wasteful.)
  • ¼ cup baby carrots sliced
  • 1 tsp minced ginger
  • 1 garlic cloves minced
  • Salt & Pepper to taste

Stir Fry Sauce
  • 1½ tsp corn starch
  • 1 tbsp cold water
  • 6tsp (⅛ cup) low sodium chicken broth
  • 1½ tbsp low sodium soy sauce
  • 6 tsp honey (⅛ cup)
  • ½ tbsp toasted sesame oil
  • ¼ tsp crushed red pepper flakes

Instructions

1st - make the stir fry sauce:
• In a medium size bowl, whisk together corn starch and water.
• Add remaining ingredients (chicken broth, soy sauce, honey, and toasted sesame oil, red pepper flakes) and whisk to combine. Set aside.

• Add one tablespoon of olive oil to a large skillet or wok and heat over medium high heat.
• Add chicken (in batches if necessary) and season with salt and pepper. Cook for 3 to 5 minutes or until cooked through. Remove from skillet.
• Reduce heat to medium and add remaining tablespoon of oil to the skillet.
• Add broccoli, bell pepper, and carrots and cook, stirring occasionally, just until crisp tender. Add ginger and garlic and cook for an additional minute.
• Add chicken back into the skillet and stir to combine.
• Whisk stir fry sauce and pour over chicken and vegetables and stir gently to combine.
• Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally, and let boil for one minute.
• Serve with rice if desired.
This sounds fantastic! From experience, I can definitely recommend adding things in batches, especially if using a wok and an electric range.
Definitely! Good to see you here Jaybird! :D
