  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: Approximately 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 34 breasts)
  • 1 cup bell peppers (sliced; mix of red, yellow, and green)
  • 1 cup broccoli florets (fresh)
  • 1 cup carrots (thinly sliced)
  • 3 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1 inch fresh ginger (grated)
  • 3 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil
  • 2 green onions (chopped for garnish)
  • 2 cups cooked rice or noodles

Instructions

  1. Gather all ingredients on the counter for easy access.
  2. Wash and chop the vegetables into bite-sized pieces.
  3. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add oil. Cook the cubed chicken for about 5-7 minutes until golden brown.
  4. Add minced garlic and grated ginger to the skillet; sauté until fragrant.
  5. Toss in bell peppers, broccoli, and carrots. Stir-fry for another 3-5 minutes until veggies are tender-crisp.
  6. Pour in the soy sauce and drizzle sesame oil over everything; stir well to coat evenly.
  7. Serve hot over rice or noodles, garnished with chopped green onions.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, marinate the chicken for at least 30 minutes before cooking.
  •  Feel free to swap in shrimp or tofu for a different protein option.
  •  Fresh vegetables enhance flavor and texture—avoid wilted ones!
