Instructions

1. 1

   In a small bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup water, 1/2 cup chicken broth, 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 2 tablespoons minced garlic, 1 tablespoon grated ginger, 2 teaspoons cornstarch, and 1 teaspoon honey. Set the sauce aside.

2. 2

   Cut 2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breast into bite-sized cubes. Set aside.

3. 3

   Thinly slice 1/2 medium yellow onion, cut 1 medium red bell pepper and 1 medium green bell pepper into ½-inch strips, and measure out the 2 cups broccoli florets, 2 cups snow peas, 1 cup shredded carrots, and 1/4 cup sliced green onion. Set aside.

4. 4

   Heat a large wok or skillet over high heat. Add 2 tablespoons vegetable oil and 2 tablespoons sesame oil.

5. 5

   Add the cubed chicken to the hot pan. Season with 1 teaspoon salt and 1 teaspoon black pepper. Cook for 5–10 minutes, tossing occasionally, until the chicken is browned and mostly cooked through.

6. 6

   Add 2 tablespoons minced garlic, the sliced onion, bell peppers, broccoli, snow peas, and carrots. Stir-fry for 5 minutes, or until the vegetables begin to soften.

7. 7

   Pour the sauce mixture into the pan. Reduce heat to medium and cook for about 5 minutes, stirring frequently, until the sauce thickens and coats the chicken and vegetables.

8. 8

   Serve hot over steamed rice or noodles. Garnish with sliced green onions.
