• 1 large Red onion
• 3 large Garlic cloves
• 1 tsp Ground ginger
• 3 tbsp Soy sauce
• 1 tbsp Honey
• 2 tbsp Sesame oil
• 1 tbsp Vegetable oil
• 1 tsp Cornstarch
• 2 tbsp Water
• 1 tsp Salt
• 0.5 tsp Black pepper
• 2 stalks Green onions (for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Cut the chicken breast into thin strips.

Step 2

Slice the red bell peppers and red onion into thin strips. Halve the cherry tomatoes and mince the garlic.

Step 3

In a small bowl, mix the soy sauce, honey, ground ginger, cornstarch, and water to create the stir-fry sauce. Set aside.

Step 4

Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.

Step 5

Add the chicken strips to the skillet and season with salt and black pepper. Stir-fry for 5-6 minutes until fully cooked and golden brown. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

Step 6

In the same skillet, add sesame oil and toss in the minced garlic and sliced red onion. Stir-fry for about 1 minute until fragrant.

Step 7

Add the red bell peppers to the skillet and continue cooking for 3-4 minutes until slightly tender but still crisp.

Step 8

Toss in the cherry tomatoes and cook for an additional 2 minutes.

Step 9

Return the cooked chicken to the skillet and pour the stir-fry sauce over the mixture. Stir well to coat all ingredients evenly.

Step 10

Cook for another 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens and everything is well combined.

Step 11

Remove the stir fry from heat and garnish with sliced green onions before serving.

Step 12

Serve immediately with steamed rice, noodles, or on its own for a low-carb option.
