Ingredients

Scale
  • 34 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1 lb)
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup bell peppers, sliced (any color)
  • 1 cup broccoli florets
  • 1 cup carrots, thinly sliced
  • 3 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1 tsp sesame oil
  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 1 tsp fresh ginger, grated
  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil for cooking

Instructions

  1. Prepare your ingredients: Chop the chicken and vegetables into bite-sized pieces.
  2. Cook the chicken: Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken pieces and sauté until golden brown and fully cooked (about 5-7 minutes).
  3. Sauté the vegetables: Add minced garlic to the skillet for about 30 seconds. Then add bell peppers, broccoli, and carrots; cook until tender-crisp (around 3-5 minutes).
  4. Make the sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, brown sugar, sesame oil, rice vinegar, and ginger until smooth.
  5. Combine everything: Pour the sauce over the chicken and veggies; stir to coat and let simmer for another minute to meld flavors.
  6. Serve hot over steamed rice or noodles.

Nutrition

Keywords: For added flavor, marinate the chicken in teriyaki sauce for at least 30 minutes before cooking. Feel free to customize with seasonal vegetables or swap chicken for tofu or shrimp.
