Description
A flavorful and vibrant dish featuring tender chicken thighs, crisp vegetables, and a homemade sweet and spicy stir-fry sauce. It’s perfect for a quick and satisfying meal.
Ingredients
1 lb boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into bite-sized pieces
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 red bell pepper, sliced
1 yellow bell pepper, sliced
1 medium onion, sliced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup broccoli florets
1 tablespoon ginger, grated
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
1 tablespoon sriracha sauce (adjust to your spice preference)
1 tablespoon honey
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
Salt and pepper, to taste
Sesame seeds, for garnish
Green onions, chopped, for garnish
Instructions
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
- Add the chicken thighs to the skillet, season with salt and pepper, and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until browned and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set it aside.
- In the same skillet, add the onion, bell peppers, garlic, and ginger. Cook for 3-4 minutes, or until the vegetables start to soften.
- Add the broccoli florets and cook for another 2-3 minutes, until tender-crisp.
- While the vegetables cook, whisk together the soy sauce, hoisin sauce, sriracha sauce, honey, and rice vinegar in a small bowl.
- Return the cooked chicken to the skillet and pour the sauce over the mixture. Stir to coat everything evenly and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly.
- Serve hot, garnished with sesame seeds and chopped green onions.
Notes
Use gluten-free soy sauce if needed to make the dish gluten-free.
Feel free to add more vegetables like snap peas, carrots, or mushrooms.
If you prefer a milder version, adjust the sriracha sauce to your liking.
Chicken breasts can be used instead of thighs, but be sure to cook thoroughly to prevent dryness.
This dish is great for meal prepping, and leftovers can be stored in the fridge for up to 3 days.
