Ingredients

• 500 grams Chicken breast
• 3 tablespoons Soy sauce
• 3 tablespoons Honey
• 1 tablespoon Sesame oil
• 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
• 3 cloves Garlic
• 1 tablespoon Ginger
• 1 unit Red bell pepper
• 2 cups Broccoli florets
• 1 unit Carrot
• 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
• 2 stalks Green onion
• 1 teaspoon Sesame seeds
• 3 tablespoons Water

Directions

Step 1

Cut the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and place them in a bowl. Add 1 tablespoon of soy sauce and the cornstarch, then mix well to coat the chicken evenly. Let marinate for 10 minutes.

Step 2

While the chicken marinates, thinly slice the red bell pepper and carrot. Mince the garlic and grate the ginger. Chop the green onion into small slices, separating the white and green parts.

Step 3

In a small bowl, mix the remaining 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, honey, sesame oil, and water. Set the sauce aside.

Step 4

Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the marinated chicken and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set it aside.

Step 5

Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil to the skillet. Toss in the garlic, ginger, and the white parts of the green onion, stir-frying for about 30 seconds until fragrant.

Step 6

Add the broccoli, red bell pepper, and carrot to the skillet. Stir-fry for 3-5 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.

Step 7

Return the cooked chicken to the skillet, then pour the prepared honey-soy sauce over the chicken and vegetables. Stir everything together until evenly coated and heated through. Cook for another 2-3 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly.

Step 8

Remove the skillet from the heat and garnish the stir-fry with the green parts of the green onion and sesame seeds.

Step 9

Serve the honey glazed chicken stir fry hot over steamed rice or noodles.
