Ingredients

• 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 3 tablespoons coconut aminos
• 2 tablespoons coconut oil
• 1 tablespoon fresh ginger
• 3 large garlic cloves
• 1 medium red bell pepper
• 2 cups broccoli florets
• 3 stalks green onions
• 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
• 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Begin by slicing the boneless, skinless chicken breasts into thin strips. Set aside.

Step 2

Prepare your vegetables: mince the garlic cloves, grate the fresh ginger, julienne the red bell pepper, and chop the green onions, separating the green tops from the white parts.

Step 3

In a large skillet or wok, heat 1 tablespoon of coconut oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken strips to the skillet, season with salt and black pepper, and cook until browned and fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

Step 4

In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of coconut oil. Add the minced garlic, grated ginger, and the white parts of the green onions. Sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.

Step 5

Add the broccoli florets and the julienned red bell pepper to the skillet. Stir-fry the vegetables for 4-5 minutes, until they are tender-crisp.

Step 6

Return the cooked chicken to the skillet. Add the coconut aminos, stirring well to coat the chicken and vegetables evenly.

Step 7

Finish with fresh lime juice and a sprinkle of sesame seeds. Adjust seasoning with more salt and pepper if needed.

Step 8

Garnish with the green tops of the green onions before serving.

Step 9

Serve the stir-fried chicken hot, and enjoy your Paleo Classic Stir-Fried Chicken!
