A quick and flavorful chicken stir fry featuring vibrant vegetables and a delicious homemade sauce with coconut aminos.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into thin strips
  • 2 bell peppers (1 red and 1 yellow), sliced into thin strips
  • 1 cup snap peas or snow peas
  • 3 green onions, ends trimmed and sliced, white and green parts separated
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil or avocado oil, divided
  • ½ cup coconut aminos
  • 2 tablespoons toasted sesame oil
  • 2 tablespoons tomato paste
  • 1 tablespoon pure honey
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger (or ½ teaspoon ground ginger)
  • ¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • ¼ teaspoon fine salt
  • Cooked rice, for serving
  • Sesame seeds, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the sliced chicken, season with salt and black pepper, and cook without stirring for 5-6 minutes until lightly browned. Stir and flip, then cook until the chicken is cooked through. Remove to a plate and set aside.
  2. In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add the sliced bell peppers, snap peas, and the white parts of the green onions. Cook until the vegetables are tender but crisp, about 4-5 minutes.
  3. While the vegetables cook, whisk together coconut aminos, toasted sesame oil, tomato paste, honey, minced garlic, grated ginger, crushed red pepper flakes, and black pepper in a small bowl.
  4. Return the cooked chicken to the skillet with the vegetables. Pour the prepared sauce over everything and stir well. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until the sauce thickens slightly, about 2 minutes.
  5. Serve hot over cooked rice and garnish with the green parts of the green onions and sesame seeds.
