Ingredients

• 1 lb Boneless skinless chicken breast
• 2 tbsp Olive oil
• 1 large Red bell pepper
• 2 cups Broccoli florets
• 2 medium Carrots
• 3 cloves Garlic
• 1 tbsp Ginger
• 3 tbsp Cashew butter
• 3 tbsp Coconut aminos
• 1 tbsp Rice vinegar
• 1 tbsp Honey
• 0.5 tsp Salt
• 0.25 tsp Black pepper
• 2 stalks Green onions
• 1 tbsp Sesame seeds

Directions

Step 1

Start by preparing the ingredients: slice the chicken breast into thin strips, cut the bell pepper into long strips, chop the broccoli florets into bite-sized pieces, peel and thinly slice the carrots, mince the garlic, and grate the ginger.

Step 2

In a small bowl, whisk together the cashew butter, coconut aminos, rice vinegar, honey, salt, and black pepper to create the sauce. Set aside.

Step 3

Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large non-stick skillet or wok over medium-high heat.

Step 4

Add the sliced chicken to the skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is 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 olive oil. Add the minced garlic and grated ginger, stirring constantly for about 30 seconds until fragrant.

Step 6

Add the bell pepper, broccoli, and carrots to the skillet. Stir-fry the vegetables until they start to soften but are still crisp, about 5 minutes.

Step 7

Return the cooked chicken to the skillet. Pour the prepared sauce over the chicken and vegetables. Stir everything together to ensure even coating, cooking for an additional 2 minutes until everything is heated through.

Step 8

Remove from heat and garnish with chopped green onions and sesame seeds.

Step 9

Serve the stir-fry hot on its own or over your choice of rice or noodles for a complete meal.
