  • (1 lb) boneless skinless chicken breasts, thinly sliced
  • (2) bell peppers, sliced
  • (1) medium onion, sliced

  • (1 tbsp) fresh ginger, minced
  • (3 tbsp) soy sauce
  • (1 tbsp) sriracha
  • (1 tbsp) sesame oil
  • (2 tbsp) vegetable oil

Instructions

  1. 1

    Heat (2 tbsp) vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.

    Add the (1 lb) sliced chicken breasts to the skillet and cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently, until the chicken is browned and cooked through.

  3. 3

    Add the (2) sliced bell peppers, (1) sliced onion, and (2 cups) broccoli florets to the skillet. Stir-fry for about 5 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
