Slice the chicken breasts into thin strips and season with salt and black pepper.
Cut the red bell pepper into thin strips, and slice the zucchini into half-moons. Separate the broccoli into small florets if not already prepared.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Add the chicken to the skillet and cook until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Add the minced garlic and ginger, and sauté until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
Add the broccoli, red bell pepper, and zucchini to the skillet. Stir-fry the vegetables until they are tender-crisp, about 5 minutes.
Return the cooked chicken to the skillet.
Add soy sauce (or tamari), and sesame oil to the skillet. Stir everything together to ensure even coating.
Cook for another 2-3 minutes until everything is well combined and heated through.
Garnish the stir fry with sliced green onions and sesame seeds before serving.
Serve hot and enjoy your keto-friendly chicken and veggie stir fry.
