Ingredients

• 1 pound Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 0.25 cup Tamari (gluten-free soy sauce)
• 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
• 3 Garlic cloves, minced
• 1 teaspoon Fresh ginger, grated
• 2 tablespoons Sesame oil
• 2 cups Broccoli florets
• 1 Red bell pepper, sliced
• 1 Carrot, julienned
• 1 cup Snow peas
• 2 Green onions, chopped
• 1 tablespoon Sesame seeds
• 2 cups Cooked white rice

Directions

Step 1

Begin by slicing the chicken breasts into thin strips. In a medium bowl, mix together the tamari, cornstarch, minced garlic, and grated ginger.

Step 2

Add the chicken strips to the marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Allow the chicken to marinate for at least 15 minutes.

Step 3

While the chicken is marinating, prepare the vegetables. Slice the red bell pepper and julienne the carrot, ensuring all vegetables are cut to a similar size for even cooking.

Step 4

Heat a large non-stick skillet or wok over medium-high heat and add 1 tablespoon of sesame oil. Add the marinated chicken strips to the pan and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through.

Step 5

Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside. In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of sesame oil.

Step 6

Add the broccoli florets, sliced red bell pepper, julienned carrot, and snow peas to the skillet. Stir-fry the vegetables for about 5 minutes until they are crisp-tender.

Step 7

Return the cooked chicken to the skillet, combining it with the vegetables. Stir well to mix the ingredients together.

Step 8

Sprinkle the chopped green onions and sesame seeds over the stir-fry, and stir to incorporate.

Step 9

Serve the stir-fry hot over a bed of cooked white rice, distributing evenly between servings.
