Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1 lb)
  • 2 cloves fresh garlic, minced
  • 1 cup bell peppers (mixed colors), sliced
  • 2 cups broccoli florets
  • 2 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil
  • 1 tbsp fresh ginger, grated

Instructions

  1. Prep your ingredients: Wash and chop vegetables into bite-sized pieces, and slice the chicken into strips.
  2. Marinate the chicken: In a bowl, combine chicken strips with soy sauce, ginger, and garlic. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.
