Cook this recipe
- boneless skinless chicken breasts-1 1/4 lb
- broccoli florets-4 cups
- carrots-2 medium
- low-sodium soy sauce-1/4 cup
- water-1/4 cup
- honey-1 tablespoon
- cornstarch-1 tablespoon
- fresh ginger-1 tablespoon
- garlic-2 cloves
- vegetable oil-1 tablespoon
- toasted sesame oil-2 teaspoons
- green onions-2 count
Prep the ingredients: thinly slice the chicken, slice the carrots, grate the ginger, mince the garlic, and slice the green onions so everything is ready before cooking.
Wash hands, the cutting board, and the knife after handling raw chicken before using them for vegetables or sauce ingredients.
Keep the knife blade angled away from fingers while slicing.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, water, honey, cornstarch, ginger, garlic, and toasted sesame oil until the cornstarch is fully dissolved and the sauce looks smooth.
Brown the chicken in vegetable oil over medium-high heat for 4–5 minutes, turning occasionally. Use a deep skillet with at least 4-quart capacity and room to stir. Avoid hot-oil splashes; the chicken finishes cooking with the vegetables and sauce.
Use caution with hot oil over medium-high heat to avoid splatter burns.
Cook chicken to an internal temperature of 165°F.
Stir-fry the broccoli and carrots for 6–8 minutes, or longer until crisp-tender. Stir frequently and reduce the heat if they brown before softening.
Re-stir the sauce, add it carefully and cook for 1–2 minutes until thickened and coating the food. Check the thickest chicken pieces with a food thermometer and continue cooking until they reach 165°F.
Add the sauce carefully because it may splatter when it hits the hot skillet.
Remove from heat, sprinkle with green onions, and serve while the stir-fry is hot and glossy.
