Orange Chicken Stir Fry

Ingredients

• Salt and pepper (to taste)
• Green onions (4, sliced)
• Orange zest (1 tablespoon)
• Broccoli florets (2 cups)
• Bell peppers (2, sliced)
• Ginger (1 tablespoon, grated)
• Garlic (3 cloves, minced)
• Vegetable oil (2 tablespoons)
• Cornstarch (1 tablespoon)
• Honey (2 tablespoons)
• Soy sauce (2 tablespoons)
• Orange juice (1/2 cup)
• Chicken breast (2, boneless and skinless, cut into bite-sized pieces)

Instructions

1. In a small bowl, whisk together the orange juice, soy sauce, honey, and cornstarch. Set aside.
2. Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
3. Add the chicken pieces and cook until browned and cooked through, about 5-6 minutes. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
4. In the same skillet, add the garlic and ginger. Cook for 1 minute, until fragrant.
5. Add the bell peppers and broccoli florets. Stir fry for 3-4 minutes, until the vegetables are crisp-tender.
6. Return the chicken to the skillet and pour in the orange sauce. Cook for 2-3 minutes, until the sauce thickens and coats the chicken and vegetables.
7. Stir in the orange zest and green onions. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
8. Serve the orange chicken stir fry hot with steamed rice or noodles.
