Ingredient Notes

• Chicken Breasts: You can also use Boneless Thighs if you prefer Darker Meat. Just make sure to cut them into bite-size pieces and trim off any fat.
• Vegetable Oil: Use any neutral cooking oil like canola or avocado.
• Sesame Oil: Located in The Asian Food Aisle of the Grocery Store.
• Garlic: Freshly MINCED GARLIC PROVIDES THE BEST FLavor, But Jarred Minced Garlic Works Too.
• Ginger: Freshly Grated for the Best Flavor. If you don't have fresh ginger, you can substitute 1/2 teaspoon of ground ginger, but the flavor won't be as bold.
• Chicken Broth: Using a low-sodium option allows you to best control the flavor.
• Honey: You can substitute it with maple syrup or brown sugar.
• Soy sauce: You can use reduced sodium or coconut aminos.
• Onion: Use a white or yellow onion. Slice Thinly for Even Cooking.
• Bell Peppers: Using Multiple Colors or Bell Peppers Adds More Color and A Little More Flavor. It's not Just For looks.
• Broccoli: Fresh Broccoli is recruited for the best texture, but frozen will work too. If using frozen, no need to thaw, just add directly to the pan.

Vegetable Options

We don't because to leave you feel stuck with only the veggies we are advocating. If there are any vegetables on this list that you hate, simply leave them out! Any veggies missing that you love, add them in! Some of our favorite additional veggies are Zucchini, Mushrooms, and Water Chestnuts.

Adjust the Heat

We have kept this recipe family-friendly and left out the spice. If you want to add any in, you could always use Red Pepper Flakes or substitute Hot Sesame Oil In Place of the Regular Sesame Oil.

Use a wok

The Best Pan for Stir Fry is by far a wok. It has a rounded bottom and is deep enough to load up with lots of ingredients at a time. If you don't already have one at home, we definitely suggest that you invest in one! If you don't, you can simply use a large skillet.

Serving suggestions

We love serving it about a big scoop of Steamed White Ricebut Brown Rice Works just as well.

Noodles are also a great choice. Toss it with cooked windows, rice noodles, or just spaghetti if's what you have. If you're feeling extra, top it with sesame seeds, a drizzle or sriracha, or a handful of chopped peanuts for some crunch.
