Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb chicken tenders Use fresh or thawed chicken for best results.
  • 1 head broccoli Cut into bite-sized pieces to ensure even cooking.
  • 1/4 cup + 2 tbsp soy sauce Use low-sodium soy sauce if desired.
  • 3 tbsp olive oil For sautéing your ingredients without sticking.
  • 2 1/2 tbsp honey Provides a sweet contrast to the savory elements.
  • 1 1/2 tsp garlic powder Adds a rich garlic flavor without the fuss of chopping fresh garlic.
  • 1/2 tsp ground ginger Enhances the Asian essence of the dish.
  • pepper To taste, adding a mild kick if desired.
  • salt To enhance all the flavors in your stir fry.

Method
 

  1. Prepare Your Ingredients: Start by chopping your vegetables into manageable pieces—cut the broccoli into bite-sized chunks while slicing the peppers and onion thinly for quick cooking.
  2. Cook the Chicken: Cut the chicken tenders into strips and heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Season with salt and pepper, cooking until browned on both sides and fully cooked through before removing from heat.
  3. Sauté Vegetables: In the same pan, add another 2 tablespoons of olive oil along with your chopped broccoli, bell peppers, onion, garlic powder, ground ginger, and some additional pepper. Sauté everything together for about 10 minutes until the vegetables are tender but still vibrant.
  4. Combine Sauce Ingredients: Lower the heat after sautéing and pour in the soy sauce and honey mixture into the pan with vegetables. Allow it to simmer gently for a few minutes so that flavors meld beautifully together.
  5. Bring It All Together: Add the cooked chicken back into the pan with vegetables and sauce mixture, stirring well to combine everything evenly. Let it simmer together for another five minutes for an explosion of flavors.
  6. Serve and Enjoy!: Finally, serve your Easy Chicken Stir Fry hot over rice and enjoy each flavorful bite!
