Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams chicken breast
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce (or coconut aminos for gluten-free option)
- 2 tablespoons sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 3 pieces garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon ginger, grated
- 200 grams broccoli florets
- 1 medium red bell pepper, sliced
- 1 medium zucchini, sliced
- 2 stalks green onions, chopped
- 3 tablespoons water
- 1 teaspoon sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Cut the chicken breast into thin strips and set aside.
In a small bowl, mix soy sauce (or coconut aminos), sesame oil, and water to create a stir fry sauce. Set aside.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Add the chicken strips to the skillet and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are golden and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and grated ginger. Sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the broccoli florets, red bell pepper, and zucchini to the skillet. Stir fry for 5 minutes until the vegetables are crisp-tender.
Return the cooked chicken to the skillet and pour in the stir fry sauce. Toss everything to combine.
Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, allowing the sauce to coat the chicken and vegetables evenly.
Remove from heat and garnish with chopped green onions and sesame seeds, if desired.
Serve the stir fry hot and enjoy your keto-friendly meal!
