  • Total Time: 25 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs, sliced into strips
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons honey or brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
  • 1 cup broccoli florets
  • 1 red bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 carrot, julienned
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch mixed with 2 tablespoons water (optional for thickening)
  • Sesame seeds and chopped green onions for garnish

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, sesame oil, garlic, and ginger to make the sauce.
  2. Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat with a little oil. Add chicken strips and cook until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
  3. Add vegetables to the skillet and stir-fry for another 3-4 minutes until tender-crisp.
  4. Pour the sauce over the chicken and vegetables, tossing to coat evenly. If desired, add the cornstarch mixture to thicken the sauce and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes.
  5. Garnish with sesame seeds and chopped green onions. Serve hot with steamed rice or noodles.

Notes

  • You can substitute chicken with tofu or shrimp for variation.
  • Adjust the sweetness or saltiness of the sauce to taste.
  • For a gluten-free version, use tamari instead of soy sauce.
