Ingredients
- 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breast
- 0.5 cup low sodium soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 tablespoon fresh ginger
- 3 garlic cloves
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon water
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 4 green onions
- 1 red bell pepper
- 2 cups broccoli florets
- 2 cups cooked brown rice
Directions
Step 1
Slice the chicken breast into thin strips and set aside.
Step 2
In a small bowl, whisk together low sodium soy sauce, hoisin sauce, rice vinegar, and honey.
Step 3
Peel and finely mince garlic cloves and fresh ginger. Add them to the sauce mixture.
Step 4
Mix cornstarch and water in a separate bowl to form a slurry, then add to the sauce mixture, stirring well.
Step 5
Heat the sesame oil in a large non-stick skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Step 6
Add chicken strips to the skillet and sauté until nearly cooked through, about 5-6 minutes.
Step 7
While the chicken cooks, thinly slice red bell pepper and chop green onions.
Step 8
Add bell pepper, broccoli florets, and half of the green onions to the skillet, stirring occasionally for 4-5 minutes until vegetables are tender-crisp.
Step 9
Pour the sauce over the chicken and vegetables, stirring constantly until the sauce thickens and everything is evenly coated, around 2-3 minutes.
Step 10
Remove from heat, garnish with remaining green onions, and serve over cooked brown rice.
