Chicken & Zucchini Stir Fry


Ingredients:

1 lb Chicken Breast

2 tbsp Olive Oil

1/3 cup Rice Vinegar

1 1/2 tbsp Grated Ginger

1 small Red Onion

4 Zucchini

2 Bell Peppers

1 cup Jasmine Rice

For the Sauce:

1 tsp Sesame Oil

1/4 cup Coconut Aminos

1 tsp Red Pepper Flakes

 

Instructions: 

1. Cook the jasmine rice according to package instructions, using a 1:1.5 rice-to-water ratio.

Bring the water to a boil, reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook for about 15 minutes. Remove

from heat and let sit, covered, for 5 minutes.

 

2. In a small bowl, whisk together the sesame oil, coconut aminos, and red pepper flakes. Set

aside.

 

3. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the

chicken, season with salt and pepper, and cook for 6-8 minutes until golden brown and fully

cooked. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

 

4. In the same skillet, add more olive oil if needed, then stir-fry the red onion and grated ginger

for 2-3 minutes until softened and fragrant. Add the zucchini and bell peppers, stirring

occasionally, and cook for another 4-5 minutes until tender but still crisp. Cover briefly if

needed to speed up cooking.

 

5. Return the chicken to the skillet and pour the sauce over the mixture. Toss everything

together and cook for 1-2 minutes until heated through and well coated.

 

6. Serve hot over jasmine rice. Garnish with sesame seeds or green onions if desired.

 

Tips: Add carrots, snap peas, or broccoli for more veggie variation. Increase red pepper flakes

or add chili paste for extra heat.
