🥘 Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 2 tablespoons coconut oil
  • 1 onion, sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 red bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 cup broccoli florets
  • 1 cup sliced mushrooms
  • 2 teaspoons soy sauce (low-sodium)
  • 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Fresh cilantro, chopped (optional)

👨‍🍳 Instructions

  1. Heat 1 tablespoon of coconut oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
  2. Add the chicken to the skillet and cook until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
  3. In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of coconut oil. Add the sliced onion and cook until translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
  4. Add the minced garlic, sliced red bell pepper, broccoli florets, and sliced mushrooms to the skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender-crisp, about 5 minutes.
  5. In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce and grated ginger. Pour the sauce over the vegetables and stir to combine.
  6. Return the cooked chicken to the skillet and stir to combine with the vegetables and sauce.
  7. Season with salt and pepper to taste, then garnish with chopped fresh cilantro (if using).
  8. Serve immediately and enjoy!
