Chicken Stir Fry with Honey and Garlic #food #recipe

1/10/2018

A 30 minute meal that everyone will love. All the flavors are a great change of pace to the normal stir fry I make. 

This recipe was adapted from Dinner at the Zoo. I made it almost exactly like they did (see photo). My suggestions are to change it, because it is slightly too sweet. It needs to balanced better. 

Step 1: Start by making a pot of good rice. I suggest Jasmine, which can take 15-30 minutes depending on the brand.

Step 2: Prep your vegetables and meat for stir fry.

Ingredients:
​
  • 2-3 tbls vegetable oil, divided
  • 1 c thinly sliced coins and half moons, peeled carrots
  • 2 c broccoli florets
  • 1/2 yellow onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 lb boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1 thin slices or pieces
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced (2 large cloves)
  • 1/4-1/2 c water
  • 1/4 c low sodium soy sauce
  • 2 tbl honey
  • 2 tsp cornstarch
  • a pinch of red pepper flakes or a small red chili (stemmed, sliced and seeded)
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • Optional: Any other veg you can add, but be mindful of size and cook time.
​
  1. Heat 1 tbl of oil in a large pan over medium heat. Saute the onions until they start to change translucent.
  2. Add the broccoli and carrots (any other veg you chose) and cook until vegetables are tender.
  3. Remove the vegetables from the pan; place them on a plate.
  4. Wipe the pan clean with a paper towel and turn the heat to high; adding the remaining tablespoon of oil.
  5. Season chicken with salt and pepper and add them to the pan in a single layer - you may need to do this step in batches. Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through.
  6. Add the garlic and pepper to the pan and cook for 30 seconds.
  7. Add the vegetables back to the pan and cook for 2 more minutes or until the vegetables are warmed through.
  8. In a bowl whisk together: 1/4 c water, honey, soy sauce, and cornstarch.
  9. Pour the soy sauce mixture over the chicken and vegetables; cook for 30 seconds to a minute, stirring completely until sauce has just started to thicken.
  10. Serve immediately over rice.
