Equipment

  • Skillet or Wok

Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts sliced into thin strips
  • 2 cups Fresh Green Beans trimmed
  • 2 tablespoons Vegetable Oil
  • 3 cloves Garlic minced
  • 1 tablespoon Fresh Ginger minced
  • 0.25 cup Soy Sauce
  • 1 tablespoon Honey
  • 1 teaspoon Sesame Oil
  • 0.5 teaspoon Red Pepper Flakes optional
  • Cooked Rice or Noodles for serving

Instructions
 

  • Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the sliced chicken and season with salt and pepper. Cook for 5-7 minutes until browned and cooked through. Remove from skillet and set aside.
  • In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of vegetable oil. Toss in the fresh green beans and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until bright green and tender-crisp.
  • Add minced garlic and ginger to the skillet, stirring for about 1 minute until fragrant.
  • Return the cooked chicken to the skillet. In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, honey, sesame oil, and optional red pepper flakes. Pour the sauce over chicken and green beans, tossing to combine.
  • Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to heat through and allow the sauce to thicken slightly.
  • Serve hot over cooked rice or noodles.
