Honey Chicken Stir Fry



Tired. Pregnant. Don't want to cook.  So I Googled things I could make with a bag of frozen vegetable stir fry, and this lovely little recipe popped up.  Thanks to Taste of Home for saving my night!

Ingredients:
  • 2 teaspoons cornstarch
  • 1 tbsp cold water
  • 3 tsp olive oil, divided
  • 1 lb boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1 inch pieces
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 3 tbsp honey
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1/8 tsp salt
  • 1/8 tsp pepper
  • 1 package (16 oz) frozen broccoli stir-fry vegetable blend
  • Hot cooked rice (I used Minute Rice)
Directions:
  1. In a small bowl, mix water and cornstarch until blended well.
  2. In a large nonstick skillet or wok, heat 2 tsp olive oil over medium high heat.
  3. Add chicken and garlic to skillet; stir fry 1 minute.
  4. Add honey, soy sauce, salt, and pepper to chicken; stir fry 2-3 more minutes or until chicken is cooked through.
  5. Remove chicken mixture from pan (I put mine back in my honey/soy sauce mixing bowl to save on dishes)
  6. In same wok or skillet, heat remaining olive oil and stir fry frozen veggies 4-5 minutes.
  7. Once veggies are tender, add chicken mixture back into the wok.
  8. Add corn starch to the mixture, and bring to a boil. Stir 1 last minute, or until mixture thickens slightly.
  9. Serve over rice. Add extra soy sauce as needed for flavor.
