Ingreadient
- 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts (cut into ½ inch cubes)
- 2 tbsp soy sauce (or coconut aminos)
- 1 tbsp honey
- 1 tbsp tapioca flour (or cornstarch)
- 2 tbsp olive oil (divided)
- 3 cloves garlic (minced)
- 1 inch piece of fresh ginger (grated)
- 1 medium onion (sliced)
- 1 bell pepper (sliced)
- 1 medium carrot (sliced)
- 1 cup broccoli florets
- 1 cup snap peas
- salt (to taste)
- black pepper (to taste)
- cooked brown rice for serving
Step by step
- First, in a small bowl, combine the soy sauce, honey, and tapioca flour. Mix well until the flour is dissolved.
- Place the sliced chicken in a bowl and pour the sauce mixture over it. Toss to coat the chicken evenly. Set it aside to marinate for about 15 to 20 minutes.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
- Add the minced garlic and grated ginger to the hot oil. Stir-fry for about 1 minute, until fragrant.
- Add the marinated chicken to the skillet, reserving any remaining marinade. Cook the chicken for about 5 to 7 minutes, or until it is cooked through and no longer pink. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set it aside.
- In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
- Add the sliced onion, bell pepper, carrot, broccoli florets, and snap peas to the skillet. Stir-fry the vegetables for about 5 minutes, or until they are crisp-tender.
- Return the cooked chicken to the skillet with the vegetables.
- Pour the reserved marinade over the chicken and vegetables. Stir-fry for an additional 2 to 3 minutes, or until the sauce thickens and coats the ingredients.
- Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper, if needed.
- Remove the skillet from the heat.
- Serve the chicken stir fry over cooked brown rice or brown rice noodles.
