Honey Garlic Chicken Stir Fry
This Honey Garlic Chicken Stir Fry is a quick, one-skillet dinner that always hits the spot. It takes less time to make than running to your favorite restaurant – and it’s healthier and tastes even better! This Chinese Honey Garlic Chicken is loaded with juicy, undeniably tender chicken and tender-crisp veggies coated in an irresistible honey, garlic, ginger stir fry sauce. You can stick with broccoli, carrots and bell peppers as seen in the photos or swap them for your favorite veggies or whatever is in your fridge. This recipe is easy to make with a quick chicken marinade (my secret ingredient makes the chicken velvety tender!) while you chop the veggies and then it’s just a quick stir fry to dinner. Your family will love this Honey Garlic Chicken recipe with rice or low carb cauliflower rice and if you’re feeling even more gourmet, toss in some homemade egg rolls and cream cheese wontons!

📝 Preparation Steps
1
Add the velveting ingredients to a large freezer bag or bowl; whisk to combine. Add chicken and turn until evenly coated. Let sit at room temperature while you prep your veggies; preferable ⏱️ 30 minutes (no more).
2
Meanwhile, whisk the Stir Fry Sauce ingredients together in a medium bowl; set aside.
3
Heat 1 1/2 tablespoon vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add chicken in a single layer and cook until golden; flip chicken over and cook an additional ⏱️ 2 minutes, until browned on all sides (does not need to be cooked through). Remove chicken to a plate.
4
To the now empty pan (don’t wipe out), heat one tablespoon oil over medium-high heat. Add onions, broccoli, carrots, and bell peppers. Stir fry until vegetables are crisp tender, about ⏱️ 3 minutes. (Don’t over-cook because they will continue to cook in sauce). Add garlic and ginger to the veggies and sauté ⏱️ 30 seconds.

Whisk the Stir Fry Sauce (to recombine) and add to the pan along with the chicken. Simmer, while stirring, until the sauce has thickened and the chicken is cooked through; ⏱️ 1-2 minutes. Adjust to taste with additional, honey, soy sauce or chili sauce. Garnish with sesame seeds and green onions if desired, dig in.
