Ingredients

• 1 pound Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Arrowroot powder
• 3 tablespoons Vegetable oil
• 3 Garlic cloves, minced
• 1 teaspoon Ginger, grated
• 1 Red bell pepper, thinly sliced
• 2 cups Broccoli florets
• 1 cup Carrots, julienned
• 2 tablespoons Rice vinegar
• 1 tablespoon Honey
• 1 tablespoon Fish sauce
• 0.5 cup Chicken broth
• 1 tablespoon Lime juice
• 2 Scallions, sliced

Directions

Step 1

Slice the chicken breasts into thin strips. Season with salt, pepper, and toss with arrowroot powder to coat evenly.

Step 2

Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a large non-stick skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the chicken in a single layer, cooking for 5-6 minutes until golden and cooked through. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

Step 3

In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Sauté the garlic and ginger for about 30 seconds until fragrant.

Step 4

Add the sliced red bell pepper, broccoli florets, and julienned carrots. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.

Step 5

In a small bowl, whisk together the rice vinegar, honey, fish sauce, chicken broth, and lime juice.

Step 6

Return the cooked chicken to the skillet, and pour the sauce over the chicken and vegetables. Stir well to combine, cooking for an additional 2 minutes until everything is heated through.

Step 7

Garnish the stir-fry with sliced scallions before serving.

Step 8

Serve hot over rice or your favorite grain, if desired.
