Ingredients

• 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 1 red bell pepper
• 1 yellow bell pepper
• 1 green bell pepper
• 0.25 cup coconut aminos
• 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
• 2 teaspoons sesame oil
• 3 garlic cloves
• 1 inch piece fresh ginger
• 3 scallions
• 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons olive oil

Directions

Step 1

Cut the chicken breasts into thin strips. Season with sea salt and black pepper.

Step 2

Slice the red, yellow, and green bell peppers into thin strips, discarding the seeds and stem.

Step 3

Finely mince the garlic cloves and ginger. Slice the scallions, separating the white and green parts.

Step 4

In a small bowl, mix the coconut aminos, rice vinegar, and sesame oil for the sauce.

Step 5

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

Step 6

Add the chicken strips to the skillet in a single layer. Cook for about 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is browned and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

Step 7

In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add the garlic, ginger, and the white parts of the scallions. Stir-fry for about 1 minute until fragrant.

Step 8

Add the sliced bell peppers to the skillet. Stir-fry for about 4-5 minutes until the peppers are tender-crisp.

Step 9

Return the cooked chicken to the skillet. Pour the sauce over the chicken and vegetables, stirring well to coat everything.

Step 10

Turn off the heat and sprinkle the green parts of the scallions over the stir-fry.

Step 11

Serve immediately, dividing the stir-fry among plates, and enjoy!
