Dinner at the Zoo

This teriyaki chicken stir fry recipe is full of chicken and colorful veggies, all tossed in a sweet and savory homemade teriyaki sauce.

Ingredients

1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts (cut into 1 inch pieces)

1 tablespoon vegetable oil (divided use)

1 1/2 cups asparagus pieces

1 cup red bell peppers (cut into 1/2 inch pieces)

salt and pepper to taste

2 tablespoons sesame seeds

2 tablespoons sliced green onions

1/4 cup soy sauce

1/2 cup water

3 tablespoons brown sugar

2 teaspoons minced garlic

2 teaspoons minced ginger

1 tablespoon honey

1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil

1 tablespoon cornstarch

Method

Heat 1 teaspoon of the oil in a large pan over medium high heat. Add the peppers and asparagus and cook for 3-4 minutes until softened and lightly browned. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Remove the vegetables from the pan; place on a plate and cover with foil to keep warm.

Add the remaining 2 teaspoons of oil to the pan. Add the chicken, then season with salt and pepper to taste. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the meat is browned and cooked through, 4-6 minutes.

While the chicken is cooking, make the sauce. Place the soy sauce, water, brown sugar, garlic, ginger, honey and sesame oil in a small pot over medium high heat. Stir until sugar is dissolved, about 3 minutes. Turn up heat to high and bring to a boil.

Mix the cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of cold water until dissolved. Add the cornstarch mixture to the sauce and boil for 1-2 minutes or until sauce has thickened.

Add the vegetables back to the pan with the chicken. Pour in the sauce and toss to coat. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and green onions, then serve.
