Ingredients
- 1.5 lbs Boneless skinless chicken breast cut into small chunks
- 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
- 1/4 cup coconut aminos or soy sauce
- 2 tbsp honey
- 3 large garlic cloves crushed
- 2 tsp fresh ginger minced

Instructions
-
Begin by heating a LARGE skillet to medium high heat.
-
Make your sauce: whisk together balsamic vinegar, coconut aminos or soy sauce, honey, garlic, ginger, and crushed red pepper (if using). Set aside.
-
Once skillet is hot, add sesame oil or coconut oil to coat the pan. Toss in all vegetables. Let your veggies cook for about 5 minutes (onions should be soft, mushrooms beginning to brown, and the rest still crispy).
-
Toss in chicken pieces. Cook for another 8-10 minutes (depending on thickness of chicken). Chicken should be no longer pink, but still tender. Toss sauce into the pan and coat veggies and chicken.
-
If you wish to thicken the sauce, add in arrowroot starch by first mixing with 1 tbsp of water. Add to pan and cook let simmer for another 2 minutes.
-
Serve hot! Best served over rice or cauliflower rice.
