Chicken and Broccoli Stir Fry in a skillet

If you’ve been following the blog, you may remember my post a few days ago where I shared the BEST Stir Fry Sauce.

Well now I’ve got a yummy Chicken and Broccoli Stir Fry to share with you, using that same sauce!

For the sauce all you need is Rice Vinegar, Tamari (gluten free soy sauce), Sesame Oil, Minced Garlic, and Truvia Brown Sugar. That’s it!

Stir Fry ingredients

I used Chicken Thighs for this recipe because they are cheaper than Chicken Breasts, but you could use either one.

Place the Chicken Thighs in a shallow dish, I used a pie plate. Then pour half of the sauce over the Chicken, refrigerate and let it marinate for at least 30 minutes or up to 2 hours.

While this is marinating start chopping your veggies!

Chicken stir fry cooking in a skillet

Add 2 Tbs Coconut Oil to a large cast iron skillet or wok and heat over med/high heat. I prefer Coconut Oil when cooking Asian dishes because it really gives it a good flavor.

When oil starts to shimmer add Chicken and the marinade it was in. Cook 5-6 minutes or until Chicken is cooked all the way through.

Remove Chicken from skillet and set aside.

Chicken and Broccoli Stir Fry in a bowl

Add 2 Tbs Coconut Oil, Peppers and Onions to the skillet. Sauté 2-3 minutes. Add Broccoli Florets and Ginger and sauté 4-5 minutes until Broccoli starts to get tender.

Add cooked Chicken back to skillet and pour the reserved marinade over everything and sauté 2 minutes.

Remove from heat and top with Cashews. You can even sprinkle some Sesame Seeds on it! Serve it with rice or noodles, your choice!

I served mine with Jasmine Rice, because I love the nutty flavor and it really pairs well with this Stir Fry.
