  • Total Time: 18 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

– 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut into 1-inch cubes

– Salt and pepper to taste

– 2 tbsp olive oil, divided

– 2 cups broccoli florets

– 1/2 yellow bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces

– 1/2 red bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces

– 1/2 cup baby carrots, sliced

– 2 tsp minced ginger

– 2 garlic cloves, minced

– 1 tbsp corn starch

– 2 tbsp cold water

– 1/4 cup low sodium chicken broth

– 3 tbsp low sodium soy sauce

– 1/4 cup honey

– 1 tbsp toasted sesame oil

– 1/2 tsp crushed red pepper flakes (optional)

Instructions

1-First Step: Prep and Marinate Start by whisking together the sauce in a medium bowl: mix 1 tbsp corn starch with 2 tbsp cold water, then add 1/4 cup low sodium chicken broth, 3 tbsp low sodium soy sauce, 1/4 cup honey, 1 tbsp toasted sesame oil, and 1/2 tsp crushed red pepper flakes if you want some heat. Slice your 1 lb chicken into cubes, season with salt and pepper, and cook it first in 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat for 3 to 5 minutes.

2-Second Step: Cook the Vegetables Add the remaining olive oil and stir in 2 cups broccoli florets, 1/2 yellow bell pepper cut into pieces, 1/2 red bell pepper cut into pieces, and 1/2 cup sliced baby carrots. Cook these until they’re crisp-tender, then mix in 2 tsp minced ginger and 2 garlic cloves for extra flavor. Return the chicken to the pan and pour in the sauce, stirring gently to combine.

3-Third Step: Finish and Serve Bring everything to a boil and let it simmer for a minute until the sauce thickens. Serve right away with rice or chow mein for a complete meal. This whole process takes about 20 minutes, making it a favorite for busy nights.
