Ingredients

• 1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts
• 0.25 cup coconut aminos
• 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
• 2 tablespoons sesame oil
• 1 tablespoon arrowroot powder
• 2 tablespoons water
• 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
• 3 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, minced
• 1 red bell pepper, sliced
• 2 cups broccoli florets
• 2 carrots, sliced
• 3 green onions, chopped
• 1 tablespoon sesame seeds

Directions

Step 1

Begin by slicing the chicken breasts into thin strips to ensure quick and even cooking.

Step 2

In a small bowl, combine the coconut aminos, rice vinegar, sesame oil, arrowroot powder, and water. Whisk together to form a smooth sauce and set aside.

Step 3

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.

Step 4

Add the minced garlic and ginger to the pan and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.

Step 5

Add the chicken strips to the pan and stir-fry until they are golden brown and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the chicken from the pan and set it aside.

Step 6

In the same pan, add the red bell pepper, broccoli florets, and carrots. Stir-fry the vegetables for about 5 minutes or until they are tender-crisp.

Step 7

Return the cooked chicken to the pan with the vegetables.

Step 8

Pour the prepared sauce over the chicken and vegetables, stirring well to combine. Allow the sauce to thicken slightly, which should take about 2 minutes.

Step 9

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

Step 10

Serve the stir-fry immediately and enjoy a savory, Whole30-friendly meal.
