Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together 1 tablespoon cornstarch, ¼ cup chicken broth, ¼ cup soy sauce, and 2 tablespoons honey. Set the stir fry sauce aside.

Sauté the chicken for 35 minutes until browned and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet to a separate plate.
  3. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil to the skillet. Add 2 cups broccoli florets (cut into bite-size pieces), ½ yellow bell pepper (cut into 1-inch pieces), ½ red bell pepper (cut into 1-inch pieces), and ½ cup shredded carrots. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender but still crisp.
  4. Stir in ½ teaspoon ground ginger and 2 teaspoons minced garlic. Cook for 12 minutes until the garlic is fragrant.
  5. Add the cooked chicken back to the skillet. Pour the prepared stir fry sauce over the chicken and vegetables and stir to coat evenly. Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring occasionally, and let it boil for 1 minute to thicken the sauce.
  6. Top with 2 tablespoons sesame seeds and serve as is or over rice. Enjoy.
