Honey Garlic Chicken Stir Fry

Do you ever just look in the fridge and wonder what you are going to make your family for dinner? I do this all of the time. I hate going out to eat and when we do, we usually just wish I would have cooked at hime. This recipe just happened to be a product of items that were only in my fridge. And let me tell you… it turned out fantastic!

I usually keep a pretty good supply of vegetables in the fridge and this stir fry included asparagus, zucchini, banana squash, mushrooms and red peppers. It was such a delicious line up of vegetables.

I love a good stir fry and they are the perfect meal in one. This one also included tender chicken and the savory honey garlic sauce just coats it so perfectly.

We loved this meal and I know that your family will too!

Ingredients 

Instructions 

  • Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat, then add 2 tablespoons olive oil. Add ½ bunch asparagus, 4 ounces sliced mushrooms, 1 sliced small yellow squash, 1 sliced small zucchini, 1 diced red bell pepper, and season with salt and ground black pepper. Cook for 3-4 minutes, until the vegetables are crisp-tender. Remove from the pan and set aside on a plate or bowl.
  • Add 1 pound diced boneless skinless chicken breasts to the skillet and cook for 5-7 minutes until no longer pink and it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Add ¼ cup soy sauce, ¼ cup honey, 1 teaspoon sesame oil, ⅓ cup chicken broth. 3 teaspoons minced garlic, and 2 teaspoons cornstarch to a small bowl and whisk to combine. Add the sauce to the skillet with the chicken and cook for 1-2 minutes, until the sauce begins to thicken.
  • Add the vegetables back to the skillet with the chicken and stir to combine. Simmer for 1-2 minutes, until the vegetables are heated throughout and the sauce has thickened a little bit more. Add red pepper flakes to taste if you want to add some heat, then serve immediately over white rice, if desired.

Notes

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Reheat in the microwave for about 1-2 minutes, stirring halfway through, or heat in a skillet over medium heat until steaming and fully heated through.

    I thought there was too much soya sauce. My dinner did not look like your picture. Aside from that it was very tasty. Will make again with less soya sauce.

    1. They are an option but I like to add them at the very end when you are adding back in the vegetables. Hope that helps! XOXO

    I’ve made this twice. My family loved it. The only thing that I changed was that, I added Yellow, Orange, Green Bell Pepper & Broccoli. It was very good.

    1. I like to use skinnytaste.com or myfitnesspal.com to learn about the nutritional information. Hope that helps! XOXO
