Slice the chicken breast into thin strips.
In a small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons of tamari and the cornstarch. Add the chicken slices to the mixture and toss to coat. Let it marinate for 10 minutes.
Heat 1 tablespoon of sesame oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Add the chicken and cook until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Remove chicken from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of sesame oil. Add garlic and ginger, sauté until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
Add the bell peppers, broccoli, carrots, and onion to the skillet. Stir-fry until the vegetables are tender-crisp, about 5 minutes.
In a small bowl, mix the remaining 2 tablespoons of tamari, chicken broth, rice vinegar, and honey. Pour this sauce over the vegetables and stir to combine.
Add the cooked chicken back into the skillet. Stir everything together and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until heated through.
Remove from heat and garnish with chopped green onions and sesame seeds.
Serve hot over cooked rice.
