Ingredients
  

1 lb (450g) boneless, skinless chicken breast, thinly sliced

2 tablespoons soy sauce (low sodium recommended)

1 tablespoon honey

2 tablespoons vegetable oil (divided)

1 cup bell peppers (mixed colors), sliced

1 cup broccoli florets

1 cup snap peas, trimmed

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon ginger, minced

1 teaspoon sesame oil

Salt and pepper, to taste

Cooked rice or quinoa, for serving

Sesame seeds and chopped green onions, for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Marinate the Chicken: In a medium bowl, combine the sliced chicken, soy sauce, and honey. Toss to coat and let marinate for about 10 minutes while you prepare the vegetables.

    Prep the Vegetables: While the chicken is marinating, wash and slice the bell peppers, broccoli, and snap peas. Set aside.

      Cook the Chicken: Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large pan or wok over medium-high heat. Add the marinated chicken to the pan in a single layer. Sauté until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Stir occasionally to ensure even cooking. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.

        Stir-Fry the Vegetables: In the same pan, add the remaining tablespoon of vegetable oil. Add the minced garlic and ginger, and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant. Add the bell peppers, broccoli, and snap peas. Cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring frequently, until the vegetables are tender-crisp.

          Combine: Return the cooked chicken to the pan, and drizzle with sesame oil. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Stir everything together until heated through, about 2 minutes.

            Serve: Spoon the stir-fry over a bed of cooked rice or quinoa. Garnish with sesame seeds and chopped green onions if desired.
