Ingredients
Sauce, blend:
- 1 medjool date pitted (softened if necessary*)
- 2 Tbsp Nakano All Natural Rice Vinegar
- 4 cloves garlic sliced
- 1 inch fresh ginger peeled and sliced
- 1/4 cup + 1 Tbsp coconut aminos
- 1/4 cup + 1 Tbsp chicken bone broth
- 1/2 Tbsp sesame oil
- 1/2 Tbsp tapioca or arrowroot starch
Veggies:
- 2 cups broccoli florets
- 1 medium bell pepper thinly sliced
- 1 cup snow peas
- Handful shredded cabbage or slaw mixture*
- 1 1/2 Tbsp coconut oil or olive oil
Chicken:
- 1.25 - 1.5 lbs boneless skinless chicken thighs sliced into 1” pieces
- 1 1/2 Tbsp coconut oil or olive oil
- Salt and pepper
Instructions
-
Make sure chicken and veggies are sliced/chopped as needed before beginning.
-
In a high speed blender or food processor, blend all sauce ingredients until smooth. Place sliced chicken in a large bowl and pour 3-4 Tbsp of sauce over chicken, toss to evenly coat.
-
Heat a large nonstick skillet or wok over medium-high heat and add oil once hot. Once skillet is fully heated, add 1 1/2 Tbsp oil. Add all the veggies and stir to coat. Cook, stirring to avoid browning, about 3 minutes - do not overcook at this stage. Veggies should just begin to soften. Remove veggies to a plate or bowl and cover with foil, set aside.
-
Add remaining 1 1/2 Tbsp oil to skillet and keep heat set on med-hi/hi. Add all chicken, leaving any marinade in the bowl. Sprinkle lightly with sea salt and pepper. Cook, stirring to brown evenly, about 3-5 minutes or until cooked through (the thinner you sliced your chicken, the quicker it will cook.)
-
Lower heat to medium and pour all sauce over chicken, then add veggies back in. Stir, and allow to simmer another 2 minutes or until sauce thickens and veggies are crisp-tender. Serve hot, alone or over cauliflower rice. Garnish with scallions, sesame seeds or a bit of crushed red pepper for spice. Enjoy!
