Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound chicken breast
- 2 cups broccoli florets
- 1 large red bell pepper
- 1 medium zucchini
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 2 teaspoons minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon ground ginger
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 stalks green onions
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Start by preparing the vegetables: cut the broccoli into small florets, slice the bell pepper and zucchini into thin strips, and chop the green onions.
Cut the chicken breast into thin bite-sized strips.
In a small bowl, mix soy sauce, sesame oil, minced garlic, and ground ginger to create the sauce.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large pan or wok over medium-high heat.
Add the chicken to the pan, season with salt and pepper, and stir fry until the chicken is cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Once done, remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.
Add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil to the same pan. Add the broccoli, bell pepper, and zucchini to the pan.
Stir fry the vegetables until they are just tender-crisp, about 4-5 minutes.
Return the chicken to the pan with the vegetables.
Pour the sauce over the chicken and vegetables, stirring well to coat everything evenly.
Add the chopped green onions and sesame seeds, continuing to stir fry for an additional 1-2 minutes until everything is heated through.
Serve immediately, garnished with extra sesame seeds or green onions if desired.
