Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 34 breasts), sliced
  • 1 cup fresh bell peppers (mixed colors), sliced

  2. In a bowl, mix sliced chicken with soy sauce, garlic, ginger, honey, and cornstarch. Marinate for at least 15 minutes.
  3. Preheat a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat. Add vegetable oil until shimmering.
  4. Add marinated chicken to the pan; cook for 5-7 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
