Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound chicken breast
- 3 cups broccoli florets
- 0.25 cup coconut aminos
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 2 tablespoons avocado oil
- 3 units garlic cloves
- 1 tablespoon fresh ginger
- 1 unit red bell pepper
- 2 units scallions
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Slice the chicken breast into thin strips.
Chop the broccoli into bite-sized florets.
Mince the garlic cloves and grate the fresh ginger.
Slice the red bell pepper into thin strips and chop the scallions.
In a large skillet or wok, heat 1 tablespoon of avocado oil over medium-high heat.
Add the chicken strips to the skillet, season with salt and black pepper, and cook until golden brown, about 5-6 minutes. Remove chicken from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of avocado oil.
Add the minced garlic and grated ginger to the skillet and stir-fry for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the broccoli florets and red bell pepper slices to the skillet, stir-frying for about 3-4 minutes until they are bright and just tender.
Return the cooked chicken back to the skillet with the vegetables.
Pour coconut aminos and sesame oil over the chicken and vegetables, stirring to coat evenly.
Continue stir-frying everything together for an additional 2-3 minutes until the chicken is fully cooked through.
Add chopped scallions as a garnish before serving.
Serve the stir fry hot, and enjoy your paleo-friendly meal.
