Ingredients

1 pound chicken breast
Salt and pepper to taste
2 tablespoons oil (divided)
1 ½ cups carrots (sliced)
1 cup yellow onion (sliced)
2 ½ cups broccoli florets
1 red bell pepper (diced)
1 cup snap peas
1 tablespoon garlic (minced)

Sauce

1 tablespoon corn starch
2 tablespoons water
¼ cup vegetable broth
3 tablespoons soy sauce
¼ cup honey
1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
¼ teaspoon ground ginger
½ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes

Instructions

Dice chicken breast into bite size pieces and season with salt and pepper. Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a deep skillet and cook chicken until cooked through.
Remove chicken from skillet and set aside. Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon oil in the skillet.
Add carrots and onions to your skillet and allow to cook for 4 minutes.
Place broccoli florets, red bell pepper, snap peas, and minced garlic into the skillet with the carrots and onions. Cook for an additional 4 minutes until vegetables are soft.
Meanwhile prepare your sauce. Whisk together all sauce ingredients in a small mixing bowl.
Add chicken back to the skillet with veggies and pour sauce over everything and mix. Allow to cook for 1-2 minutes to allow sauce to thicken.
Optional: Serve over rice and top with sesame seeds.

Notes

Cutting your vegetables: When dicing my vegetables I try to make sure they are all similar in size. This will help everything cook evenly.

Soy Sauce: For this recipe, I used a reduced-sodium soy sauce. Regular soy sauce has a very salty taste so make sure to add it to taste.

Serving Ideas: You can serve this recipe over rice or make it low carb and serve it over cauliflower rice.
