Prepare a quick, flavorful chicken and vegetable meal using just one skillet. This recipe features a simple honey soy glaze.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 cup broccoli florets
  • 1 red bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 cup sliced carrots
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce (low sodium preferred)
  • 3 tablespoons honey
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon cornstarch
  • 2 tablespoons water

Instructions

  1. Combine the soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, ginger, and garlic in a small bowl. Set aside.
  2. Mix the cornstarch and water in a separate small bowl to create a slurry. Set aside.
  3. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken pieces and cook until browned on all sides, about 5 to 7 minutes. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
  4. Add the broccoli, bell pepper, and carrots to the same skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
  5. Return the cooked chicken to the skillet with the vegetables.
  6. Pour the reserved honey soy sauce mixture over the chicken and vegetables. Bring the sauce to a simmer.
  7. Stir the cornstarch slurry and pour it into the simmering sauce. Cook, stirring constantly, for 1 to 2 minutes until the sauce thickens into a glaze.
  8. Serve immediately over rice or noodles.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, add 1/2 teaspoon of sesame oil at the end of cooking.
  • You can substitute the vegetables with snap peas, mushrooms, or sliced onions.
  • If you prefer a spicier dish, add 1/4 teaspoon of red pepper flakes with the garlic.
