HONEY GARLIC CHICKEN STIR FRY

Honey Garlic Chicken Stir Fry. A quick and easy one skillet weeknight meal that takes less than 30 minutes to make!

INGREDIENTS

• 2 tablespoons oil divided
• 2 cups broccoli
• 1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts cut into 1 inch pieces
• 4 cloves garlic minced
• 1/4 cup low sodium soy sauce
• 1/4 cup water
• 1/4 cup honey
• 1 teaspoon sesame oil
• 2 teaspoons cornstarch
• salt and pepper to taste
• sesame seeds for garnish if desired

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large skillet.
2. Add in the broccoli and sauté until tender and caramelized, 4-5 minutes. Remove from the pan and set aside.
3. Add the remaining tablespoon of oil to the same pan. I cook my chicken in two batches to ensure it gets crispy and caramelized on the outside.
4. Add the garlic and cook for an additional minute.
5. Meanwhile in a small bowl combine soy sauce, water, honey and sesame oil.
6. Add the sauce to the pan along with the broccoli.
7. In a small bowl mix the cornstarch with a tablespoon of cold water.
8. Slowly whisk in the cornstarch mixture into the sauce. Simmer until the sauce has thickened, 1-2 minutes.
9. Season with salt and pepper and serve immediately with sesame seeds for garnish, if desired.
