Ingredients
- 1 lb Chicken breasts
- 12 oz Green beans, trimmed
- 0.25 cup Coconut aminos
- 3 pieces Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tbsp Fresh ginger, minced
- 1 tbsp Sesame oil (Whole30-compliant)
- 1 tbsp Avocado oil
- 0.5 tsp Salt
- 0.25 tsp Black pepper
- 0.25 tsp Red pepper flakes (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Cut the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces and season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
Step 2
Trim the ends of the green beans and rinse them thoroughly under running water. Pat dry and set aside.
Step 3
In a small bowl, combine coconut aminos, minced garlic, and ginger. Stir well to create your sauce and set aside.
Step 4
Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add avocado oil and let it heat up for about 30 seconds.
Step 5
Add the chicken to the skillet in a single layer. Cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is no longer pink and lightly golden. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
Step 6
In the same skillet, add the sesame oil and green beans. Stir frequently and cook for 4-5 minutes, until the green beans are tender-crisp.
Step 7
Return the cooked chicken to the skillet with the green beans, and pour the coconut aminos sauce over the mixture. Stir well to coat everything evenly.
Step 8
Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together and the chicken to finish cooking.
Step 9
If desired, sprinkle in a pinch of red pepper flakes for a touch of heat. Stir to incorporate.
Step 10
Remove the stir-fry from heat and transfer to a serving dish. Serve immediately and enjoy!
