Instructions

1. Cut the chicken into even bite sized pieces and prep all the vegetables so everything is ready before cooking.

2. In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, honey, brown sugar, rice vinegar, cornstarch, water, and sesame oil until smooth.

3. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium high heat.

4. Add the chicken and cook for 5 to 6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until lightly golden and nearly cooked through.

5. Stir in the garlic and ginger and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.

6. Add the broccoli, bell pepper, carrots, and snap peas to the skillet.

7. Cook for 4 to 5 minutes, stirring often, until the vegetables are tender crisp.

8. Whisk the sauce again, then pour it into the pan.

9. Stir everything together and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, until the sauce thickens and coats the chicken and vegetables.

10. Remove from the heat and top with green onions and sesame seeds before serving.

Notes

This recipe works well with chicken thighs if you want a richer flavor and slightly juicier texture.

Cut the vegetables into similar sizes so they cook evenly and finish at the same time.

For extra sauce to spoon over rice, add 2 to 3 extra tablespoons of water while the sauce simmers.
