Ingredients

• 500 grams Boneless, skinless chicken breast
• 80 ml Soy sauce
• 50 grams Honey
• 20 grams Brown sugar
• 3 pieces Garlic cloves, minced
• 1 tablespoon Ginger, minced
• 2 teaspoons Cornstarch
• 60 ml Water
• 2 tablespoons Sesame oil
• 1 piece Red bell pepper, sliced
• 250 grams Broccoli florets
• 1 piece Carrot, julienned
• 2 pieces Green onions, sliced
• 1 teaspoon Sesame seeds (optional)
• 4 servings Cooked rice or noodles (for serving)

Directions

Step 1

Cut the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and set aside.

Step 2

In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, honey, brown sugar, minced garlic, minced ginger, and 30 ml of water to create the teriyaki sauce.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, mix the cornstarch with the remaining 30 ml of water to form a slurry and set aside.

Step 4

Heat 1 tablespoon of sesame oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the chicken pieces and cook until they are browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

Step 5

In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of sesame oil. Add the sliced red bell pepper, broccoli florets, and julienned carrot. Stir fry the vegetables for 4-5 minutes until they are slightly tender but still crisp.

Step 6

Return the cooked chicken to the skillet with the vegetables. Pour the teriyaki sauce over the chicken and vegetables.

Step 7

Reduce the heat to medium and let the sauce simmer for 2-3 minutes. Stir in the cornstarch slurry and continue to cook for another 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens.

Step 8

Remove the skillet from the heat and garnish the stir fry with sliced green onions and sesame seeds, if desired.

Step 9

Serve hot over cooked rice or noodles and enjoy!
