  • 1 red bell pepper sliced
  • 1 cup broccoli florets
  • 1 medium carrot thinly sliced
  • 1 small onion sliced
  • 3 garlic cloves minced

  4. Stir in the garlic and ginger and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.
  5. In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, oyster sauce, honey, rice vinegar, cornstarch, and water.
  6. Pour the sauce into the skillet and stir until the chicken and vegetables are evenly coated.
  7. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes until the sauce thickens.
  8. Remove from the heat and stir in the sliced green onions.
  9. Garnish with sesame seeds if desired and serve over steamed rice or noodles.

Notes

  • Use any vegetables you have on hand, such as snap peas, mushrooms, or zucchini.
  • Cook the vegetables just until tender-crisp to keep their texture.
  • Add red pepper flakes or sriracha for extra heat.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
  • Serve with rice, noodles, or cauliflower rice for a complete meal.
