Description

A quick and flavorful stir-fry featuring tender chicken, crisp mixed vegetables, and a perfectly balanced sweet and spicy sauce, served over fluffy rice.


Ingredients

Scale

For the Crust:

  • 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 2 cups cooked white or brown rice
  • 2 cups mixed vegetables (such as bell peppers, broccoli florets, carrots, and snap peas)
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 tablespoon sriracha or chili garlic sauce
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
  • 2 green onions, sliced
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds, for garnish

Instructions

1. Prepare the Crust:

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, honey, sriracha, rice vinegar, and sesame oil to make the sauce. Set aside.
  2. Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add chicken pieces and cook until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Remove chicken from skillet and set aside.
  3. Add remaining 1 tablespoon vegetable oil to the skillet. Stir in garlic and ginger, cooking for 30 seconds until fragrant. Add mixed vegetables and stir-fry for 4-5 minutes until crisp-tender.
  4. Return chicken to the skillet. Pour the sauce over the chicken and vegetables, stirring to coat everything evenly. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until heated through and sauce thickens slightly.
  5. Serve the stir-fry over cooked rice. Garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds.
