Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Chicken breast, boneless and skinless
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper, freshly ground
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 3 tablespoons Soy sauce, low-sodium
- 3 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Ginger, fresh and grated
- 1 medium Red bell pepper, sliced
- 2 cups Broccoli florets
- 1 medium Zucchini, sliced
- 2 stalks Green onions, sliced
- 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon Sesame seeds
Instructions
Begin by cutting the chicken breast into thin, bite-sized strips. Season the chicken pieces with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
Heat one tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned chicken strips and cook until they are golden brown 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 grated ginger, stir-frying for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the sliced red bell pepper and broccoli florets to the skillet. Stir-fry for about 3 minutes or until the vegetables start to soften but still retain some crunch.
Stir in the sliced zucchini and cook for another 2-3 minutes.
Return the cooked chicken to the skillet, and add the low-sodium soy sauce. Toss everything together to combine well and ensure the chicken and vegetables are coated with the sauce.
Add the sliced green onions and drizzle the sesame oil over the stir-fry. Toss everything once more and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
Remove the skillet from heat and sprinkle the stir-fry with sesame seeds before serving.
Serve immediately and enjoy your flavorful Keto Chicken Stir-Fry with Vegetables.
