Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams vegan chicken pieces
- 1 cup broccoli florets
- 1 medium red bell pepper, sliced
- 1 medium carrot, thinly sliced
- 100 grams snap peas
- 2 stalks green onions, sliced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, minced
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 0.5 cup vegetable broth
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
- 2 cups cooked rice or quinoa
Instructions
In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, sesame oil, cornstarch, and vegetable broth until smooth to make the stir fry sauce. Set aside.
Heat a large non-stick skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add a little water or vegetable broth to prevent sticking, then add the vegan chicken pieces. Cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are lightly browned and cooked through. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the broccoli, red bell pepper, carrot, and snap peas. Stir fry for about 5-6 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp. If needed, add a splash of water to help steam the vegetables.
Add the garlic and ginger to the skillet, stirring constantly for 1 minute until fragrant.
Return the vegan chicken pieces to the skillet with the vegetables. Pour the stir fry sauce over the mixture, stirring well to combine. Allow the sauce to thicken and coat all the ingredients evenly, cooking for an additional 2-3 minutes.
Stir in the sliced green onions and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
Serve the stir fry hot over cooked rice or quinoa.
