🥘 Ingredients

  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 2 tablespoons coconut oil
  • 1 large onion, sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 large bell pepper, sliced
  • 2 cups mixed vegetables (broccoli, carrots, snap peas)
  • 2 teaspoons soy sauce (low-sodium)
  • 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Fresh cilantro, chopped (optional)

👨‍🍳 Instructions

  1. Heat the coconut oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
