Stacy’s Suggestions and Preparation

1. For the recipe, click here.
2. To make the stir fry sauce: whisk together in a medium bowl the corn starch and water. Add remaining ingredients and whisk to combine. I only used 1 tbsp of honey instead of 1/4 cup.
3. Add one tbsp of olive oil to a large skillet or wok and heat over medium heat.
4. I used chicken but you could use shrimp, pork, or beef or a combination! Add chicken to the pan. Season with salt and pepper. Cook for 3-5 minutes or until cooked through. Remove from skillet.
5. Reduce heat and add the rest of the oil olive.
6. Add broccoli, peppers, carrots and cook. I used broccoli, peppers, mushrooms, and onions. Stir occasionally.
7. Add ginger and garlic and cook for another minute.
8. Add chicken back to the skillet and stir.
9. Whisk stir fry sauce and pour over the chicken and veggies.
10. Bring to boil for about 1 minute.
11. Serve with rice or chow mein. I used cauliflower rice.
