Ingredients
  

1 lb (450g) boneless, skinless chicken breast, sliced into thin strips

2 tablespoons vegetable oil

4 cloves garlic, minced

1 inch fresh ginger, grated

1 red bell pepper, sliced

1 cup broccoli florets

1 cup snap peas

2 green onions, chopped (for garnish)

For the Spicy Honey Sauce:

1/4 cup honey

2 tablespoons soy sauce (low-sodium)

1 tablespoon rice vinegar

1 tablespoon sriracha (adjust to taste)

1 teaspoon cornstarch mixed with 2 tablespoons water (for thickening)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Sauce: In a small bowl, mix together the honey, soy sauce, rice vinegar, sriracha, and cornstarch slurry. Stir well and set aside.

    Cook the Chicken: Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the chicken strips and season with salt and pepper. Stir-fry for about 5-7 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and browned. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

      Sauté Vegetables: In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of vegetable oil. Add the minced garlic and grated ginger, sautéing until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the red bell pepper, broccoli, and snap peas. Stir-fry for another 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.

        Combine Chicken and Sauce: Return the cooked chicken to the skillet with the vegetables. Pour the spicy honey sauce over the chicken and vegetables, stirring to combine. Allow it to simmer for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened and everything is nicely coated.

          Garnish and Serve: Remove the stir-fry from heat. Sprinkle with chopped green onions and serve hot over steamed rice or noodles if desired.
