Ingredients

INGREDIENTS

• 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken thighs, sliced
• 2 tablespoons honey
• 1 tablespoon freshly grated ginger
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
• 1 bell pepper, sliced
• 1 cup broccoli florets
• 1 cup snap peas
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
• 2 green onions, chopped

Instructions

1. In a small bowl, whisk together honey, ginger, and soy sauce; set aside.
2. Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
3. Add sliced chicken to the skillet and cook until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
4. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
5. In the same skillet, add minced garlic and vegetables; stir-fry for 4-5 minutes until tender-crisp.
6. Return the chicken to the skillet and pour the honey-ginger mixture over the top.
7. Stir everything together and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the glaze thickens slightly.
8. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and green onions before serving.

Notes

Tip: For extra flavor, consider adding a splash of rice vinegar to the sauce for a tangy finish.

For the best flavor, marinate the chicken in the honey-ginger mixture for at least 30 minutes before cooking. This will deepen the flavors.

Feel free to substitute the vegetables with whatever you have on hand—broccoli, snap peas, or bell peppers work wonderfully. If you prefer a little heat, add some red pepper flakes to the glaze.

Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stove to retain the texture of the veggies.
