Ingredients
- 1 chicken breast, boneless and skinless
- 4 tbsps soy sauce
- 2 tbsps honey
- 1 tsp ginger, finely grated
- 2 garlic, minced cloves
- 240 mls (1 cup) broccoli florets
- 1 carrot, thinly sliced
- 1 bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 240 mls (1 cup) snap peas
- 2 tbsps olive oil
- 480 mls (2 cups) cauliflower rice
- 2 green onions, sliced
- 1 tbsp sesame seeds
- to taste salt
- to taste black pepper
Instructions
- Cut the chicken breast into thin, bite-sized strips.
- In a small bowl, combine the soy sauce, honey, grated ginger, and minced garlic. Add the chicken strips and marinate for at least 15 minutes.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated chicken and cook until browned and no longer pink inside. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Add the broccoli florets, sliced carrot, bell pepper, and snap peas. Stir-fry the vegetables until they are tender-crisp, about 5-7 minutes.
- Add the cooked chicken back into the skillet with the vegetables and stir to combine. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to ensure everything is heated through.
- In a separate skillet, lightly toast the cauliflower rice over medium heat for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally until it's heated through.
- Serve the chicken and vegetable stir-fry over the cauliflower rice. Garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Notes
- A healthy and low-carb stir-fry option.
- You can substitute chicken with tofu for a vegetarian version.
